Hope you enjoy!

Great quotes from Shane:

We see our own problems as being complex and having a lot of layers to them but other people’s problems are simplistic.

I don’t know if I can trust people who haven’t had a significant time of doubt in their life. If it’s that easy for you I kinda doubt your intellect or sincerity.

Is it better to trust God when you’ve never doubted? Or is it better to trust God through your doubt. To me, it’s more significant to say, yeah, I do doubt but I’m going to trust God anyway.
