Submission

What happens in your mind, in your heart, when the authority of God's Word is challenged?

 

Evolution versus the Genesis account of creation, abortion versus pro-life, homosexual "marriage", miracles, etc...

 

While doubting is normal, long-term spiritual growth sees an enduring confidence in God that cannot be shaken.  Submitting to His Word when seeking truth, trusting that what He has said is true.  

 

Trusting that our understanding of His Word, or our understanding of the evidence against it, is what is lacking.  Trusting that diligent study will eventually reveal the truth, that your faith is not misplaced, that the reasons He has previously given to trust Him are not made void.

 

Submission in this way takes years.  Be prepared.
