Thought Adjuster: “Dear child, let us talk about Faith vs. Doubt.  They are two powerful alternatives and they are at each others’ antipodes. They are the two choices that present themselves to you whenever you meet a fork in the road of your life journey.  Faith displays an upbeat attitude that does not leave any room for any deterrents.  Faith is the certitude that you are connected to a much greater picture — with amazing spiritual influences that join forces with you whenever you invite them into your life.

“Doubt, on the other hand, demonstrates an attitude of insecurity and indecisiveness. It reflects a lack of inner clarity.  Whenever you doubt, you need to find your alignment with higher truth as such a truth has the power to dispel any doubt.  Truth speaks for itself and does not need any justification.  It overrides any doubt.  It feels right.

“Whenever you doubt, you experience some mental unease.  Doubt can point the way to various options.  Yours is to find the one that overrides any doubt, the one that you can engage in with pure and unadulterated faith. 

“Your Master Jesus acted based upon His unwavering faith in the Father’s plan.  He may have entertained doubt as to the ability of His followers to represent Him after his physical death and these doubts caused him some anguish—not for His own sake but for their sake and the sake of humanity.  He coached His followers to walk in faith so that they would not fall prey to insidious doubt. 

“As long as your faith has not been strengthened by constantly applying it to your life challenges, you are at risk to see your abilities diminished by the debilitating influence of doubt.  Doubt is at the root of many mishaps as it takes God’s wind out of your sail.  Faith is a wind that propels you forward — Godward — not on your own power, but on God’s power.  Faith is adding 1 + 1 to create Oneness rather than division.  Doubt is preventing this connection from occurring as it manifests itself in a No-Can-Do attitude.  Learn to recognize such a handicap in your life.  Turn to Me so that I can help you dispel your doubts and expand the power of your faith.  I have faith in you as I know you better than you know yourself.  By having faith in My Guidance, you are investing your trust wisely as I am the One in the know about your life script.  I am the One taking you to your destination, to the happy unfolding of your life journey.

“Your life may seem filled with challenges and tribulations.  It would make the script for a good movie — one where you sit at the edge of your seat.  Would you rather be a damsel in distress passively waiting for things to change?  A good life is a good and courageous fight.  A good life is based on many courageous decisions at each fork in the road.  It is embracing challenges rather than ducking them.  It is flexing your soul muscles and learning to spread your spiritual wings.”
