Teeth in the Dark: Chewing Through Doubt

“The righteous are as bold as a lion.” — Proverbs 28:1

Ever feel like your faith’s being gnawed on from the inside out? Doubt is sneaky like that—it doesn’t roar, it whispers. But here’s the twist: even your spiritual questions have teeth. They chew, they grind, they break down what’s stale so something living can be built anew.

Imagine your heart as a mouthful of chili—spicy, messy, but nourished by heat. Every bite of doubt isn’t an attack on your belief; it’s digestion. God doesn’t ask for blind confidence. He invites flavor, tension, paradox, and questions that bite hard—because that’s where raw trust gets tender.

Reflection Questions:

• What doubts have you been afraid to admit?
• Can you see them as ingredients rather than threats?
• What’s one bold truth you’re clinging to, even when it burns?

Prayer Prompt:
God, make me brave enough to chew through the tension. Let my questions sharpen—not shatter—my faith. Give me lion’s teeth in the face of fear, and a taste for your truth even when it stings.
