Self Doubt; An Original Haiku

>*"For through the grace given to me I say to everyone among you not to think more highly of himself than he ought to think; but to think so as to have sound judgment, as God has allotted to each a measure of faith."*
[**- Paul the Apostle -**](https://www.biblegateway.com/quicksearch/?quicksearch=think+highly&qs_version=NASB)

Greetings, Friend! :D

The rollercoaster of life keeps me struggling... But I'm trying to get my hand back into doing some writing, as I've been sort of down in the dumps for some time now. Just haven't had the energy to write.

Truth is, though, that writing actually seems to generate some of its own energy! So I just have to do it. ;)

Thanks for stopping in and saying "Hey." How are you keeping? What did you learn from Paul today? We're getting ready to head out to church... :D

We discussed his letters to the Colossians, and the encouragement on what we should make of ourselves , in order for us to Trust in Him , and for Him to be able to trust in us.

The eternal principle of uncertainty that's at the heart of creativity. You are most real and closest to real genius when you do not know what you do. Put in terms you may or may not understand, you are a quantum particle in a two-slit experiment. Selah.
