Here's the kicker for many in "transition."
The question is: "Does God even exist?"
The first thing I have to say is this...you will always notice that whenever you are in a physical/mental/emotional transition, you will always be in a spiritual one. This is the question that will come in some shape, form, or size whenever thinking about life's difficulties.
The second thing I have to say is that you do not need to be afraid of this question. Just because you are asking it does not mean that you are a bad person, a bad Christian, etc. It also does not mean that just because you are asking the question that the doubt validates your negative answer or response.
Too often people are told to never let that question enter their mind. We are told that we are not supposed to think like that in church or that having questions means we cannot love God. I definately disagree with that. Don't worry. Ask the question. But there are some guidelines to follow which we will talk about for the rest of this week.
