Questions, doubts, and struggles are not the antithesis of faith.  The opposite of faith is a decision to not trust God.  The man who cried out to Jesus, ‘I do believe; help me overcome  my unbelief’  did not demonstrate faith with zero doubts but a willful decision to trust in God even in the midst of questions  and doubts.

With what little time we have left for making life meaningful, too many of us find ourselves going through the motions and achieving very little of  lasting value.  We live as if we have all the time in the world, when the truth of the matter is that our time on earth is short.  We truly are ‘here today, gone tomorrow,’ making every second precious.
