It\u2019s not important to know what the argument was about but I can tell you it was a battle of faith. My faith had tanked and I needed some encouragement fast. I was going round after round with the Lord until I finally got to the point where I said out loud to Him, \u201cProve it.\u201d At that moment, the wrestling stopped. I realized I was in a trap &#8211; one that said loudly and clearly that even though I believed I had heard from God, I didn\u2019t trust Him.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">What happened next was nothing short of God\u2019s grace. He brought to my remembrance the story of Thomas in the scriptures. Good ol\u2019 doubting Thomas. The one disciple who needed to see the wounds of the risen Jesus before he would believe. You know what I love about that story? Jesus didn\u2019t cast Thomas aside because of his unbelief. He did the opposite. He let Thomas touch the wounds in his hands.\u00a0 He would take his hand and let him feel the wound in his side. He would let Thomas not only investigate but take hold of the proof he needed in order to believe.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Did I get the proof I needed in my squabble with the Lord the other day?
