The human brain has the unique ability to doubt the reality presented to itself. To comprehend the dissonance between ideas and the truth of the surrounding world. God knows this, and it infuriates him. It terrifies him.

About This Quote

The human brain has the unique ability to doubt the reality presented to itself. To comprehend the dissonance between ideas and the truth of the surrounding world. God knows this, and it infuriates him. It terrifies him.

The act of doubting is one that is prevalent in all of us. We doubt our own abilities, our own capabilities, our own worthiness. We doubt whether what we see before us is actually real, or only a dream or illusion or mistake or an altered state of reality.

And so we question everything we see because we want to know the truth. We want to know what is real and what isn’t so we can feel protected by it. But of course, there’s no such thing as a safe haven from God’s wrath, for He doesn’t accept anything less than total surrender.
