DOUBTS LEAD US ASTRAY, BECAUSE WE ARE NOT TRUSTING IN GOD. WE MUST TRUST GOD’S LOVE. IT WILL NEVER FAIL US, BUT WE MUST LEARN NOT TO FAIL IT BY OUR DOUBTS AND FEARS. WE ALL HAVE MUCH TO LEARN IN TURNING OUT FEAR BY FAITH. ALL OUR DOUBTS ARREST GOD’S WORK THROUGH US. WE MUST NOT DOUBT. WE MUST BELIEVE IN GOD AND CONTINUALLY WORK AT STRENGTHENING OUR FAITH.
