God's love for every human person is that of a friend who knows all about us, and still loves us, with a desire to deepen that love; inviting us to reciprocate His love for us, by loving those He sends to us to assist, with the abundance that He has granted us to evidence His love of us.
“To love means loving the unlovable. To forgive means pardoning the unpardonable. Faith means believing the unbelievable. Hope means hoping when everything seems hopeless.” ~ G.K. Chesterton
The more that we try to reason our faith in God, the more we discover that there is no rhyme, or reason apart from our experiences revealing Our Father's intervention in our life, the result of synchronous events creating a pattern beyond the believable scope of random chance.
“Doubt isn't the opposite of faith; it is an element of faith.” ~Paul Tillich
Doubt becomes a valuable asset whenever we are faced with a bizarre coincidence that appear to have been conveniently timed to assist us when we needed it most.
The more we doubt, the more we ask questions, leading us to open up to that which asks us to trust its influence on our life. Reason enough to become much more sensitive to the coincidences that appear to enter our conscious awareness leading us into a more rewarding life.
Many people have discovered that it was when they suffered a catastrophic event, reduced to helplessness, in the midst of their ongoing storm they were inspired to take steps leading them out of their disaster, into calm waters where a solution was waiting for them.
“Understanding is the reward of faith. Therefore, seek not to understand that you may believe, but believe that you may understand.”
― Augustine of Hippo
