“What
do you mean, ‘If I can?” Jesus asked. “Anything is possible if a person
believes.”
The
father instantly cried out, “I do believe, but help me overcome my unbelief!”
Mark 9:23-24 NLT
Dear Jesus,
I believe…
Everything is possible
with you.
You are the Way, the
Truth, and the Life. (John 14:6)
Your promises are meant
for me.
Help my
unbelief…
For the times I worry,
even though I know you are with me.
For my doubt, even
though You know what’s best for me.
For the times I lose
my temper and act out of emotions; I know better.
Jesus, I thought I
trusted You…but my trust in You continues to grow by leaps and bounds. You have
allowed things to happen in my life and I’ve asked You why.
Why? To show me…
When I’m at my lowest,
You’re the only One I need.
When I cry out to You,
You’re already there. You were waiting for Me.
To teach me…
To trust You. In deep,
unspeakable ways. With everything.
To thank You. To see
Your blessings in everything, everywhere, and every day.
Nothing is impossible
with You. You make a way where there is no way.
Forgive me, Lord, for
the times I stumble in my trust and belief.
Thank You for your
unending patience with me, for showing me…again and again. For knowing when I’m
trying. And for getting my attention when I’m not looking Your way.
Thank You for teaching
me…for opening up Your Word of Truth to me. For seeing me for who I can be in
You and for leading me there.
I love you Jesus, with
all my heart.
Love, Your Daughter,
Laura
How about you? What would your
letter to God look like?
In Christ,

Thanks Debbie! No matter where we are in our faith walk, there is always more He will show us and teach us. God bless!

Laura:
ReplyDeleteThis is a beautiful love letter! I have so often prayed, "help my unbelief." Sometimes I wonder why He is so patient with me, but He is a loving and forgiving God.
Blessings,
Joan
Thanks for your comment on my prayer; I came to see yours. I love the verse and have often prayed after that example, I believe; help my unbelief. Yes! So glad you wrote, your love for Jesus shines!
