Quote by Elizabeth Goudge

Faith given back to us after a night of doubt is a stronger thing, and far more valuable to us than faith that has never been tested.

Faith given back to us after a night of doubt is a stronger

Summary

This quote emphasizes the notion that faith is fortified and its value intensified when it is regained after experiencing doubt and uncertainty. Unlike faith that remains unquestioned or untested, having faith restored following a period of skepticism or disbelief renders it more resilient and invaluable. The implication is that enduring moments of doubt enhances one's conviction, deepens their understanding, and makes their faith more robust, ultimately highlighting the significance of overcoming challenges to strengthen one's faith.

It is very difficult to elucidate this feeling to anyone who is entirely without it, especially as there is no anthropomorphic conception of God corresponding to it.
