Antidote to Doubt

Over the past few weeks, doubt has again started to rear its ugly head. As I look back on the things that triggered it, I came to realize that the unanswered prayers are the culprit. But come to think of it, the prayers were not really unanswered; God just answered them in a different way - in a way that I didn't like and that started a rebellion on my part.

O, how easy it is for me to rebel against God and forget all the things that He has done for me. I'm quite ashamed of myself. My prayer is that, no matter what happens, I would always see the hand of God in everything, and that I would never forget His goodness.

This Don Moen song could be a very good reminder . . . .

Lord You Are Good
Where would I be
If You had not been by my side
How could I rise to meet
The morning of the day
Your tender mercy
Always calling from behind
At times I could not see You
Even though You were close by

Lord You are good
You are Good
And Your mercy forever endures
Lord You are good
You are good
And Your mercy forever endures

Help me to see Your loving kindness
Help me to see You as You are
Help me to see Your loving kindness
Help me to see You as You are
As You really really are

And Your mercy forever endures
And Your mercy forever endures
