Wisdom-Trek / Creating a LegacyWelcome to Day 1395 of our Wisdom-Trek, and thank you for joining me.This is Guthrie Chamberlain, Your Guide to WisdomAn Element of Faith – Wisdom UnpluggedWisdom - the final frontier to true knowledge. Welcome to Wisdom-Trek! Where our mission is to create a legacy of wisdom, to seek out discernment and insights, to boldly grow where few have chosen to grow before. Hello, my friend, I am Guthrie Chamberlain, your captain on our journey to increase Wisdom and Create a Living Legacy. Thank you for joining us today as we explore wisdom on our 2nd millennium of podcasts. This is Day 1395 of our Trek, and it is time for our 3-minute mini trek called Wisdom Unplugged. This short nugget of wisdom includes an inspirational quote with a little bit of additional content for today’s trek. Consider this your vitamin supplement of wisdom for today. So let’s jump right in with today’s nugget:


Today’s quote is from  Paul Tillich, and it is:  Doubt isn’t the opposite of faith; it is an element of faith.    


An Element of FaithThis quote may seem irrational or illogical, but when you really think about it, I believe it is entirely accurate. Another similar dichotomy is you cannot have courage if you have not experienced fear. For if you have never doubted, how can you know what it is to experience faith? The best definition of faith is found in God’s Word. Hebrews 12:2 (https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Hebrews+12:2&version=NLT)


We do this by keeping our eyes on Jesus, the champion who initiates and perfects our faith. Because of the joy awaiting him, he endured the cross, disregarding its shame. Now he is seated in the place of honor beside God’s throne. That’s a wrap for today’s Wisdom Unplugged quote. If you would like free access to my database of over 11,000 inspirational quotes, the link is available on the main page of Wisdom-Trek.com. Just as you enjoy these nuggets of wisdom, encourage your friends and family to join us and then come along tomorrow for another day of ‘Wisdom-Trek, Creating a Legacy.'
