Doubt causes us to search for God and seek Gods" will. .
Not to long ago, I doubted God. I had been keeping myself so busy that I didn't make time for God. I didn't pray like I should, I would oversleep and miss going to church, and I stopped reading my bible daily. I felt myself slipping away from God more each day. It got to the point to where when I did pray I felt as if there were a wall, and God wasn't hearing my prayers. I went to my church youth camp and it was there when I realized where I stood with God. The only problem was that I doubted He would hear me when I asked forgiveness. I felt so empty inside. The first night during this week, I went down to pray at the end of the service. I asked God to help me understand where I had gone wrong, and to forgive me. I wasn't sure He heard me, but I prayed anyway. Before I got up from the alter that night, a girl that I had never met came up to me and knelt beside me. She said "I don't know you but I love you. When I saw you for the first time earlier today, there was something about you that caught my attention and God put you on my heart. I don't know what is going on in your life but I feel like God wants me to be here for you this week and let you know he does hear you.".
When this girl, whom I had never met, said these words to me I was overwhelmed. I then turned to God and poured my heart out. This strengthened me and increased my faith in God. It opened my eyes to what God can do and to how much he does really love me. .
