Paul says don't be shaken from the hope of the gospel. The gospel is steady - it's you who are tempted to be unstable.
I'm realizing that when I feel faith is shaky, it's usually because I'm the one wavering, not because the gospel shifted. The gospel is the solid thing. I need to stand firmer, not doubt it more.
That's reoriented me. When faith feels weak, I ask: am I doubting God or am I just doubting myself? Usually it's the latter. And I can strengthen my own resolve without changing what I believe.
