Prayer

Jesus taught His disciples that faith moves mountains and invites us to ask the Father boldly (Matthew 21:22).

Father, I want my faith to be stronger than my doubts. Too often I trust my own understanding instead of leaning wholly on You. I confess that I sometimes treat Your promises like suggestions instead of certainties. Grow my conviction in who You are — that You are faithful, that You keep Your word, that You are worthy of my trust. Help me stake my life on You. In Jesus' name, Amen.
