Are you struggling with doubt and staggering at the promises of God. Don’t be too hard on yourself. Many of the things God promises seem almost too good to be true, like forgiveness, a new life, fellowship with Him, and eternal life. Still, if we will invite Jesus to inhabit all the dark, doubt-filled corners in our lives, He will fill us with the wonder of His presence. Like Thomas, we will exclaim, “My Lord and my God.”

“Then he said to Thomas, ‘Put your finger here; see my hands. Reach out your hand and put it into my side. Stop doubting and believe.’ Thomas said to him, ‘My Lord and my God!’”

— John 20:27-28 (NIV)

Lord Jesus, I believe. Help me to believe more. In Your holy name I pray. Amen.
