Monday Meditation - Jesus Understands My Doubt

Yesterday was a great day! I continued to preach on the series "Jesus is a man that understands my temptation to Doubt" out of John 20. I talked about Thomas and how he doubted and Jesus understood and still gave him a personal experience to grow his faith. In summary - I said that Jesus understands our temptation to doubt and he helps us overcome our doubts...

1. Through giving us a personal experience - Jesus appeared to Thomas and told him to place his hands into the holes in Jesus' hands and feet. The point is that Jesus wants to give us all a personal expereince to overcome our doubts.

2. Through the command "quit doubting and believe." Jesus wants us to work on our doubts through changing our thinking.

3. Through helping us focus on the blessings of belief! Jesus told Thomas that "blessed are those who beleive and have not seen."

Jesus provided a way for us to overcome our doubts...
