Faith

Luke 17:6
    “So the Lord said, ‘If you have faith as a mustard seed, you can say to this mulberry tree, “be pulled up by the roots and be planted in the sea,” and it will obey you.’”
    How many times does Jesus tell us that what we ask for in His name will be given to us? But how many times do I claim to know this as fact--to know that God is powerful and can do all things and desires to bless us--but then never believe enough to ask practically. It’s not that I secretly think God can’t do it, it’s that I think He won’t do it for me. I’m afraid of being disappointed so I don’t ask.
    I need to remember that God loves me and wishes to bless me. I need to pray with confidence that God will answer.
