Help my Unbelief!

On my journal today is a sketch 

of the very worried father

and his epilectic son who foams 

in the mouth and has seizures,

from Mark 9:14-29.

The father pleads with Jesus,

"If You can do anything, have compassion 

and help us!"

Jesus answers, " 'If you can!' 

EVERYTHING IS POSSIBLE

TO ONE WHO HAS FAITH."

Then the father responds with, 

"I DO believe. Help my unbelief!"

Mark 11:24 reads, "Have faith that whatever

you ask for in prayer is

already granted you,

and you will find that it will be."

It is sometimes hard to understand  these words.

All I know is

FAITH is a gift.

"Every perfect gift is from above."

James 1: 17

And if we ask God for something,

and it is not granted yet,

we can pray like the father,

"I DO believe, help my unbelief!"

I love blog parties!
