Unbelief
O God,
We believe. Help our unbelief.
We believe that you are working your purposes out in this world and in all your creation. Sometimes, though, when we see the terrible events that occur in the world, we can’t quite believe it.
Thank you for the faith we have. Increase our faith.
We believe that the ways that your Son showed and taught us in his words, in his life, and in his death are the ways you want us to follow. Sometimes, though, when we see how different his ways are from the ways of the world and how difficult his ways are to follow, we can’t quite believe it.
Thank you for the faith we have. Increase our faith.
We believe that to know you is to have eternal life. Sometimes, though, when this life beats us up and breaks us down, we can’t quite believe it.
Thank you for the faith we have. Increase our faith.
Lord, we believe. Help our unbelief . . .
Amen.
