If it all be possible, let this cup pass from me

I’m a little jealous. I wish I had absolute certainty. I don’t.

I’m sorry. It’s available. The disciples in the boat on Galilee while Jesus was sleeping should have known better. We are to have childlike faith.
 

@Vinnie

I’m trained in science. I doubt everything

So am I. But empirical evidence can be had. Are you familiar with Maggie’s testimony? Do you think she has lingering doubts? We are to have childlike faith.

And without faith it is impossible to please God, because anyone who comes to him must believe that he exists and that he rewards those who earnestly seek him.
Hebrews 11:6

 

@Vinnie

But I have friends in the same boat as me.

Speaking of boats.
 

@Vinnie

Doubt is a healthy and natural part of being a human.

Maybe that is a platitude? What did Jesus say to the disciples after they woke him? He didn’t only rebuke the wind and the waves. We are to have childlike faith.
 

@Vinnie

I don’t think God really cares to be honest.

What?! That is an oxymoron and an intrinsic contradiction, to say it redundantly. You might check this out: Why there is no proof of God. What do you think the reward(s) mentioned in the verse cited above might be?
