Lord I believe; help my unbelief!-A meditation on Luke 9:14-29



When I feel like I’ve prayed and yet you have not heard,
When in spite of all your promises, it seems like you take better care of the sparrows,
When my heart is broken and my spirit is crushed and you seem not to care.
Lord I believe; help my unbelief!

When I have wrestled with the same challenges for only you know how long,
And almost seem to be wondering around in the wilderness,
And wonder if I will ever reach the promised land.
Lord I believe; help my unbelief!

When your prophets and messengers seem unable to help me,
And it almost feels there must be something wrong,
And you seem very very far away.
Lord I believe; help my unbelief!

You say nothing is impossible for the one who believes.
Stretch forth you hand in power.
Only you can do this. Have mercy Lord, and help me.
Lord I believe; help my unbelief!
