How to Overcome Doubtنموونە
When we focus on what God has not done we end up feeding our doubt.
When we focus on what God has done we feed our faith.
When David walked to fight Goliath, he remembered all the times where God had previously delivered him.
In those stories, there was also a component we see highlighted – God didn't "protect" Him from those lions and bears. David could have remembered how God allowed the bears and lions to attack him, but in that miraculous story of deliverance, he chose to remember what God had done instead of what God didn't do, or what He allowed to happen.
Most of us have stories where certain things were "allowed" to happen to us, and we build monuments of the things God has not done, instead of building memorials for what God has done.
When you have doubt filling you up, remember the miracles of God in your life. You'll see how your faith will be made stronger and your doubt will drown.
