Stirred By The Scriptures

Everyone of us has probably experienced times of doubt. We doubt ourselves, we doubt others and we even doubt God. Doubting God seems to be the result of timing and failure to act. God’s timing isn’t what I want and he apparently doesn’t act on my behalf and it leads to my doubting. In Isaiah 51:9 we read - “Awake, awake! Clothe yourself with strength, O arm of the Lord.” Isaiah is imploring God to act on his people’s behalf and to do it now. I wonder what it will be for me today? Doubt or patient trust.
