For if you remain silent at this time, relief and deliverance for the Jews will arise from another place, but you and your father’s family will perish. And who knows but that you have come to your royal position for such a time as this?” Esther 4:14
We've gone from "prophesizing someone's future of power at a young age" to "someone suddenly getting put into a position of power to save a group of people"
Heyo, when it comes to tumblr, I'm kinda new (this is the first post i'm making btw) I'm a part-time artist that does digital more often ever since I got FireAlpaca on my computer earlier this year. Some works are of my OCs, some (80%) are fanart, some are really creative fanart (if you're a Wings of Fire Nerd you may have noticed Luna the SilkWing as a human; you probably also saw the YouTuber Pastel Flurry). Please let me know what you think of the art (PS, do you know where people under 18 can sell art/ do commissions? I'm asking for my cousin) also check me out on DeviantArt (KC Sketchyz) and TikTok (Sketchy KC)

7 Christian Solutions For When Doubts Creep In
Christian Doubts
Doubt is a natural part of the human experience, and for Christians, it can feel particularly challenging. Whether it stems from personal struggles, questions about faith, or external circumstances, doubting one's beliefs is not uncommon. However, navigating through these doubts can lead to a deeper understanding and a stronger faith. Here are several strategies that can help Christians address and overcome doubt.
1. Acknowledge Your Doubt
The first step in dealing with doubt is to acknowledge it. Ignoring or suppressing doubts can lead to confusion and frustration. Recognizing that it’s okay to question your faith allows you to confront these feelings honestly. Remember that many religious figures, including those in the Bible, grappled with doubt. This acknowledgment is a vital step toward growth.
2. Seek Understanding
Doubt often arises from a lack of understanding. Delve into scripture, study theological texts, or explore teachings from trusted pastors or mentors. Asking questions and seeking knowledge can help clarify uncertainties. Remember that faith does not require having all the answers; it often starts with curiosity and a desire to learn.
3. Pray and Meditate
Prayer can be an effective tool in overcoming doubt. Take time to communicate with God about your feelings and questions. You can seek guidance, clarity, and comfort. Meditation on scripture or the nature of God can also help center your thoughts and ease fears.
4. Engage in Community
Being part of a faith community can provide support during times of doubt. Share your feelings with trusted friends, family members, or a pastor. Hearing others' experiences and perspectives can illuminate your own situation and provide solidarity. Remember that you are not alone in your struggles.
5. Reflect on Past Experiences
Take time to reflect on past experiences when you faced doubt and how you overcame those challenges. Recognizing the ways you have grown can serve as a reminder of God's faithfulness. These reflections can provide encouragement and reinforce the truth of your beliefs.
6. Embrace Uncertainty
Faith inherently involves an element of uncertainty. Learning to coexist with doubt can help strengthen your faith. Embrace the notion that questions do not negate belief; rather, they can deepen it. Allow yourself to explore these uncertainties without fear, and recognize that growth often comes from grappling with difficult questions.
7. Focus on God’s Promises
Revisit the promises found in scripture regarding God’s love, faithfulness, and purpose. Meditating on these promises can provide comfort and reassurance. God’s truth is a firm foundation to rely on during times of uncertainty. Reflecting on His unwavering nature can help alleviate doubts.
Dealing with doubt as a Christian is an ongoing journey that many face. By acknowledging doubts, seeking understanding, engaging in prayer, and participating in community, you can navigate through these challenging times. Embrace the questions and uncertainties, knowing that they can ultimately lead to a deeper and more resilient faith. God is present in your doubt, guiding you towards a stronger relationship with Him. Remember, the journey of faith is not about having all the answers but rather about cultivating trust in God, even amidst uncertainty.
