I am personally experiencing a close friend, a sibling, and a new contact expressing much despair and hopelessness. Having been in the well of darkness and having mostly conquered heavy doubter in my personal chart I feel thus compelled...and I believe that the I Ching, Hexagram 48 has a great message for All as well.
To My Doubting Thomases
Today, more than ever
I feel surrounded by you,
my doubting Thomases.
Are you approaching me
that I may recant a truth,
the eternal promise of renewal?
Like a moth to the flame
the doubter must penetrate the wound
and feel the blazing heat from the touch.
Yes, Thomas you abide
in us all and are most visible
in the searching eyes of a weary seeker.
For innocence lost or stolen
must know the lonely pain of emptiness
and the endless pain of doubt.
May your plea for Hope lead you to
a quest for Faith that perpetuates
desire for true LOVE with the Divine.
Found victory proclaims this Divine Love
which is the union of All
that shall overflow your cup.
Now this overflow of Love
shall ever quench all who thirst
and partake from the well of living waters.
Doubting Thomas, I pray thee
keep lifting the necessary veils
until you can clearly see,
and until you feel drunk
with Love's restoration,
and until you live and breathe Belief.
