Matthew 28:16-20
The eleven disciples went to Galilee, to the mountain to which Jesus had ordered them. When they saw him, they worshiped, but they doubted. Then Jesus approached and said to them, “All power in heaven and on earth has been given to me. Go, therefore, and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you. And behold, I am with you always, until the end
of the age.”
Reflection There's something about the phrase When they saw him, they worshiped, but they doubted.
How do you worship God and still doubt? I don't think you doubt the facts that Jesus has shared with us about who the Father is. But what is likely to happen to us is that we doubt whether we can be the instruments that God is calling us to be. To bring His truth to the world. That is where we need to be sure that we are trusting not so much in our ability, but in what is being given to us by God to accomplish the task.
We will be successful. That's His promise. That's our hope.
Closing Prayer Father, confidence in your words has to also include confidence in our ability to be an instrument of bringing those words to the world. As we experience doubt, let us never let it overpower our conviction in the promise that you make that you will be there with us in all we're called to do. And what we will do will be enough. And we ask this in Jesus name, Amen.
