Overthinking is a dangerous thing at times -- sometime's faith isn't suppose to be this compicated. The "all or nothing" concept in the Christian faith is prevalent throughout the bible, notably some harsh verses criticizing "lukewarm" Christians.
Am I lukewarm? I'd be lying if I said I wasn't. I don't think it's because I don't pray enough or read my bible enough, but it's because this underlying doubt that there's something better than God out there.
Something.
A child simply clings to his father and mother has no doubt that they love him the most. They're all in, yet they're not pulling off different feats of faith every other day. They simply know that there's nothing better.
And somewhere in my mind, I know that to be true too, but my heart isn't so sure.
