doubt...

[crenfro]

Hello.

Sometimes I feel low and I start doubting God, and goodness and the ultimate outcome of things…

Any suggestions to redirect my thinking? I’d sure appreciate it, because I don’t like to doubt.

Thank you.

I can appriciate you not wanting to doubt, especially after reading #2088 of the CCC.
Do one or more of the following:
Receive and celebrate the Sacraments offten. Read and Pray Sacred Scripture! Pray the Rosary! Pray the Chaplet of Divine Mercy! Pray the Hail Mary and Ask Our Blessed Mothers Help to overcome the doubt.

Make yourself familiar with the angels, and behold them frequently in spirit; for without being seen, they are present with you. St. Francis de Sales

I understand your feelings of doubt, an here are some things to try. Read the first part of St. Thomas Aquinas’s “Summa Theologica” (you can find an English translation at www.newadvent.org)). Also, simply read the Bible and pray for help. Read the last few chapters in Revelations. It may scare you a little (as it did me) but it ultimatly makes you realize God’s power. When we realize God’s power, we are able to believe in him better.
