In a world where having the answer places you on the plane of knowing and authority it is understandable that we would want to be in that category.  Yet, how many things do we do each day with a certain amount of doubt?  How often can we really say we know how something is going to turn out or someone is going to be?  Most of our knowing is based on our belief that things will be like they were the last time.  Our drive to work will be smooth because in our past experience it has been.  Our time with a friend with be fraught with strife if we talk about politics because the last few times we did we were not able to agree.  Our brains appreciate this type of knowing because it requires less energy output. We simply need to pull from the file in our brain and go on automatic pilot.  Having doubt about something leaves room for life to unfold.  Inviting God into our space of doubt allows us to proceed from wonder instead of fear.  We can garner the life energy needed to be present when we doubt because the lightness of curiosity awakens in us an element of our true selves.  Embracing doubt opens us up to experience more of who we are as well as learning about the world
