What to do with your doubts
I read this in a book (Beyonders: Chasing the Prophecy) and really liked how the character put his thoughts.
When I have doubts about a decision, I search for a better alternative. In this situation I see none....My next step is to examine the reasons I have to believe....If I find my reasons satisfactory, I cast aside my doubts and proceed. Show me proof that my doubts are real, and I would feel differently. Show me a better alternative, and I would reevaluate my position.
Something else he says is:
Faith isn't knowledge...Faith is a tool. Faith keeps us going until we get the knowledge.
