Thank you for this gentle reminder that God is always with us even when we doubt. <br /><br />I loved it that Ignatius nurtured Henry's spirit AND his health.Sarahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09091216096297798587noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2100862372880209397.post-32098361292862456492011-07-06T16:37:03.660-07:002011-07-06T16:37:03.660-07:00Thank you, Victor, for another wonderful story.

Old age seems to provide natural remedies to all kinds of sins when one thinks about it (vanity, pride, lust, etc...) but doubt and abandonment is an exception - that one can creep in anytime. Even the great saints fought with this, such as St. Therese, Mother Theresa and others.

Thank you.<br /><br />I suppose we all tend to have doubts a little when in difficulties or in pain. But as Karinann said; without doubt there'd be no Faith.<br /><br />God bless you all and your families.Victor S E Moubarakhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04280638667651857296noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2100862372880209397.post-57380973554043137412011-07-05T13:03:12.833-07:002011-07-05T13:03:12.833-07:00I enjoyed reading your story Victor, I needed that...I enjoyed reading your story Victor, I needed that!

I was listening to an audio retreat over the weekend and the priest giving the talk spoke about how doubts and questions are a part of faith, in fact they are necessary-if there are no doubts from time to time, then there is no need of faith because you already know and are sure. Our human natures give us cause for faith.<br />Henry gives a very concrete, human dimension to this concept.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15124468084334204166noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2100862372880209397.post-81646118788441470162011-07-05T08:13:26.951-07:002011-07-05T08:13:26.951-07:00Oh I have missed your stories, I have been away fr...Oh I have missed your stories, I have been away from the computer for a bit enjoying the summer weather.
