Why?

Questioning your faith, strengthens your faith

“Faith is not something to search for; faith is a byproduct of investigation and intellectual effort.”

Proverbs 16:9 (NASB) The mind of man plans his way, But the Lord directs his steps.

Exodus 5:22-23 (NLT) Then Moses went back to the Lord and protested, “Why have you brought all this trouble on your own people, Lord? Why did you send me? 23 Ever since I came to Pharaoh as your spokesman, he has been even more brutal to your people. And you have done nothing to rescue them!”

John 10:10 (NLT) The thief’s purpose is to steal and kill and destroy. My purpose is to give them a rich and satisfying life.

Jeremiah 29:11 (NLT) For I know the plans I have for you,” says the Lord. “They are plans for good and not for disaster, to give you a future and a hope.

Romans 12:2 (NLT) Don’t copy the behavior and customs of this world, but let God transform you into a new person by changing the way you think. Then you will learn to know God’s will for you, which is good and pleasing and perfect.

1 Timothy 6:18-19 (NLT) Tell them to use their money to do good. They should be rich in good works and generous to those in need, always being ready to share with others. 19 By doing this they will be storing up their treasure as a good foundation for the future so that they may experience true life.

James 4:7 (NLT) So humble yourselves before God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you.

Questioning your faith, strengthens your faith
