What If...?

What if? Those are two words my husband asked me yesterday. They were filled with power, optimism, and faith. My spirit immediately jumped with joy on the inside because of the hope within those words. For the past few weeks my husband and I have been praying, fasting, and trusting God to show us clarity about our future as we enter into a new year. Even though we may not have the full picture in front of us at the moment, we have a confidence in Him like we didn't have before.

We have to trust God and not doubt. At times all of us allow doubt to stop us from dreaming or believing.  Luke 24:38 says, “And he said to them, "Why are you troubled, and why do doubts arise in your hearts?”  As a Christian wanting to move forward in life, we must recognize this doubt and begin to ask ourselves certain questions. We must ask: "Is there a valid reason I am doubting?", "Is this doubt due to something or someone from a previous experience?", or, "Is this doubt caused by the devil, our enemy?" Answering these questions, will help us discover the answers to our doubt and allow us to move forward in faith with God.
