Resurrecting Faith (Week 6)

What do we do with our doubts in the life of faith? Sometimes, all we have to offer God is our doubts, and that’s okay. Doubt is not the opposite of faith. Doubt is often a catalyst for faith. In today’s scripture reading on “doubting Thomas,” we see that the most extraordinary faith is born out of doubt. “My Lord and my God!” [Jn 20:28] Although Peter proclaimed Jesus “the Christ,” Thomas was the first to identify Jesus as “God.” May our doubts invite God to be made real in our lives and the lives of others. “Doubt is a pain too lonely to know that faith is his twin brother.” ~Khalil Gibran
