DOUBT

WHAT IS DOUBT? WHAT DOES IT DO?

IT IS TO BE UNCERTAIN, OR UNSURE;

TO DISTRUST, TO DISBELIEVE IN TRUTH

OR UNTRUTH. TO NOT BE SURE ABOUT

WHAT SOMEONE HAS SAID, OR DONE,

AND IT LEAVES ONE IN A QUANDARY,

AND MAKES US SO VERY ALONE

FOR WHEN WE DOUBT THE BOUNDARIES

OF TRUTH FROM ONE, OR FROM ANOTHER,

IT MAKES US SO LEARY OF BELIEVING TRUTH.

SO, DOUBT IS A THIEF, A ROBBER, A TAKER

OF TRUTH, PEACE, TRUST AND BELIEF.

WE HAVE TO LEARN TO DOUBT SOMEONE'S WORD,

WE, AS CHILDREN, BELIEVE ALL WE ARE TOLD,

YET, AS WE GROW, WE FIND WE CANNOT TRUST

EVERYONE WHO TELLS US MANY THINGS.

NOT EVERYONE'S WORD IS AS PURE GOLD.

OH, FRIENDS, HOW I WISH WE WERE TRUTHFUL,

FOR TRUTH SETS ONE FREE, THE TRUTH OF GOD,

ESPECIALLY. BUT THE TRUTH OF OUR FRIENDS

AND LOVED ONES MAKES US TO TRUST MORE

AND MORE. THAT IS WHAT WE SHOULD BE

LOOKING FOR...........TRUTH, TRUTH AT ALL TIMES.
