Doubts and Questions

Why believe when I don’t have all the answers?

Sometimes faith can feel like something you are supposed to understand completely before you begin. But life’s biggest questions rarely come with instant answers. Father Tim reflects on the idea of faith seeking understanding and on Jacob’s struggle with God. He reminds us that questions, growth, and wrestling with what we believe can remain part of the journey.

I have seen God face to face, yet my life has been spared.Genesis 32:31
