Bible verses for doubt

When faith feels thin

The lie

If I feel unsure, it can't be true.

The truth

Your faith is only as strong as the One it rests on, and He is not shaken. Jesus didn't send Thomas away. He showed him His hands.

More truth

Pause

Stop. Doubt is not a dead end. Breathe, and bring the question to Jesus instead of away from Him.
