It’s more like a messy finger painting, colors once beautiful, turned a muddy brown from too much mixing. A feeling of uncertainty about the truth, reality or nature of something.ĭoubt doesn’t paint a pretty picture.To be uncertain about consider questionable or unlikely hesitate to believe.Let’s start with a few definitions for doubt from (emphasis mine): Too much time takes me to thoughts that don’t match up with a woman who has seen what standing in faith produces- God’s glory and goodness revealed when we weather a storm well. Often times, doubt dashes me against the rocks when I’ve had to endure for a long season. Not perfect, but in pursuit of the One who is.
