“Resolved, to examine carefully, and constantly, what that one thing in me is that causes me in the least to doubt of the love of God”
— Jonathan Edwards

Simplified Meaning:
The quote talks about always thinking deeply about what inside ourselves makes us question God's love. It suggests that reflecting regularly on our doubts can help us understand and overcome them. Imagine someone who feels unsure if their friend really cares about them. Instead of ignoring that feeling, they decide to think about what triggers their doubts, like a specific action or lack of communication. By identifying these reasons, they can talk to their friend and improve their relationship. In a similar way, by recognizing what makes us doubt God's love, we can work through those feelings and strengthen our faith. This advice encourages us to be honest with ourselves and look for ways to resolve our uncertainties.
