OVERCOMING OUR DOUBTS<\/h3>\n\n\n
\n
This is the confession of a man who desperately wanted to believe, but still had doubts. This doesn’t sound like the greatest of confessions, yet Jesus healed the man’s son nonetheless. Jesus still answers the prayers of those who have a mixture of doubt and belief. <\/span>The<\/span> important thing is to confess the doubt, saying, “Jesus, help my unbelief! Increase my faith!” We all begin our journey with Jesus with a “mustard seed” of faith. Following Him, the seed grows into a tree, overshadowing all our doubts, so that only our believing remains.<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n

PRAYER: Dear Father, we all face things beyond our control, things we can’t handle ourselves. We bring them to You for help. We believe Lord, yet help us overcome our unbelief. For even our faith is a gift from You. In Jesus’ name, amen.<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
