Uncertainty is a condition leading the insecure person to come to terms with reality, that happiness is always work in progress, never a finishing line. Lock downs are revealing a dramatic increase in cases of high anxiety, and depression sufficient for people to ask, why am I feeling uncertain about tomorrow?
Uncertainty is that condition enabling the human person to learn that nothing in life is certain. Remembering that we are going to die is the best way that I know to avoid the trap of thinking we have something to lose.
Uncertainty is an awakening to life's invitation to let The Father provide the antidote to the worries that will sooner, or later drive the insecure person into the arms of an anti depressant, or let Our Father's presence guide us through life's tribulations into calmer waters.
Thinking positively invites the thinker to scan their thoughts for the "negative." There is no other way that the mind can relieve itself of the thought that there just might be negative thoughts lurking with ill intent.
Uncertainty is that condition enabling our newly discovered humility to open a door to The Father.
20 Listen! I am standing and knocking at your door. If you hear my voice and open the door, I will come in and we will eat together.
~ Apocalypse 3
