"Why Can’t I Believe" by H.U.G.E.: Help Me Overcome Unbelief

H.U.G.E.'s "Why Can't I Believe" is a reflective gospel visual that explores the struggle between doubt and faith. It feels like an honest journal entry put to music. The artist knows that God stays with us to the end, and His power is unlimited. But there is a world of difference between clear promises and a shaky heart. 

The lyrics keep circling one honest question that will be all too familiar for most listeners… "why can't I believe what God says He will do?" This question turns doubt into prayer, not shame. Instead of pretending that everything's fine, the song points at some of the real culprits: negative self-talk, anxiety that tightens our chest, and this impatience inside us that wants to get answers right now. Familiar, isn't it? We understand the theory, but in real life, we have trouble putting it into practice. 

The lyrics continue about going through more than a few stumbles, and acknowledge that even when our faith feels fragile, we are being carried. The song keeps pointing us back to God's steady presence, especially when life doesn't seem to cooperate. 

So, how do we put this into practice? Speak life, reject the spiral, and ask for His help to trust again. Whenever we question our faith, it can become a new doorway. So, take a breath, open Scripture, and remember our story is never finished. Faith grows while you keep showing up. So, go ahead and press play. Let "Why Can't I Believe" coach your courage one refrain at a time.
