Everyone has doubts. You just trust your faith

All you need is faith as small as a mustard seed, and you will be able to tell a mountain to move and it will...sometimes that mountain can be our own faults and fears.
God believes in you 100%...he has the advantage of being your creator, of course.
For those who believe, there is a special blessing... "Blessed are those who have not seen yet still believe, for theirs is the kingdom of Heaven."
I think what you need to do is meditate on what you see around you... do you really think this world started through a big bang, and by random chance? The plants and trees, animals and everything around you is alive and so perfect. Someone HAD to have designed it...
Anyway...really, really think about what you believe...deep down, and do not worry about the 'bad' part.
Believing in God is not the difficult part, really. It is believing what He says...that is the tough part.

I doubted God's existence most of my life. It was when I was in college and looked into many of these science theories such as Evolution and the Big Bang that I changed my mind. Both Life and the Universe are far too complex to have just popped up on their own.
So I started to research this phenomenom known as God and thats when I discovered him. And ever since then I see him everywhere I go.

Doubt is a Human Emotion, and I am sure all have doubted GOD because they have Trusted themselves rather than God!
About 6-years ago I had Cancer Surgery and Radiation! A preacher that I knew came to the Hospital to pray for me. I told him to pray for the Surgeon! I DID NOT HAVE FEAR!
(Rom 8:28) And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose.
I told him that I believed GOD and His WORD = and that Faith and Fear = CANNOT RESIDE IN THE HUMAN MIND = AT THE SAME TIME!
In the same way , TRUST and DOUBT = Cannot reside in the Human Mind at the Same TIME!
Fill you Mind with the WORD OF GOD and you will have Nothing To Doubt!
(Psalms 56:3) What time I am afraid, I will trust in Thee [GOD].
Thanks, RR

do you "believe in" gravity 100%?
personally I do not think its bad to doubt God, in fact I think its crucial.
is a Deity that could not withstand doubt, really a God, or worthy of worship?
IMO, No.
then comes to the question of what you actually belive in/consider as God. what many christians call God, I do NOT Believe in whatsoever.
but I do have something that I believe in, that I do call God.

It is not bad to doubt in God, but only because you are identifying with the mind, and the mind is always accepting one thing today and rejecting it tomorrow. If you go from the mind to the intelligence, you will find yourself more firmly grounded in faith in God, and thus brief periods of phasing from belief to unbelief won't bother you so much, and you will be able to bear trials and troubles much easier.

There are many places in the Bible were people doubt. David doubted. Abraham had doubts. Moses doubted. All the disciples doubted at the time of Jesus' crucifixion. We all feel separated from God at times in our live. I think doubt is part of healthy faith.

I will not tell you whether or not you should doubt god. I will suggest emphatically that you doubt people who claim to understand god better than you do, and people who tell you to believe in their god to the exclusion of all others. Remain skeptical of anyone who tries to sell you their religion.

I don't think so. If God didn't want us to question or doubt things, then he wouldn't have given us that capability. When believing in God's existence it all comes down to faith eventually.

I have doubt sometimes too....when things in my life seem to be going wrong....but then I think about the poem "Foot Prints" ever read it? It is when things are going wrong that God is carrying you through them....even when it seems he is not there.....he is and that is when you need him the most....trust in him! That which does not kill you can only make you stronger.....and when he gets me through the tough times.....I do believe in him the most....I hope this helps.
