The Sun Rises On Your Doubt
The sky is lightening, but inside, everything feels gray and uncertain. The beliefs that once held you up now feel like they are slipping through your fingers.
You wonder if you have lost the light forever. But look at the horizon.
The sun does not ask for your permission to rise. It does not wait for you to feel ready.
It simply arrives. The light was there before you believed in it, and it is there now, even in your doubt.
You do not have to manufacture faith to be held by the dawn. The Father's light is not dependent on your certainty; it is dependent on His nature.
You are not losing the light; you are just waking up to a version of it that doesn't need your perfect understanding to shine. The sun rises on the skeptic just as surely as it rises on the saint.
Your doubt is not a wall; it is just the shadow cast by a new and deeper morning that is breaking.

Matthew, Gospel of Thomas
