gotta live up to the name..

i guess lately ive been kinda burdened with a feeling of inadequacy. its just sometimes i start to think that i am indeed a Christian who is lacking in faith. after so many years of being a Christian, ive learned to depend more and more on the Lord through prayer and quiet times and everything, but with a few specific incidents occuring in the past 2 weeks, ive been quite discouraged at myself. i realized that most of the time when i pray, i only find myself praying for things that im already almost sure will turn out all right, instead of really putting all my trust in God's faithfulness and praying for everything that comes to mind, even in situations where the outcome is definitely unknown. i guess now is the time to really put my faith to the test; it's time to see the true power of prayer.
