At my church it's the time of year when we look at our past year's goals, set new ones, etc. Reflecting on that, I realized that I don't pray like I believe God can do absolutely anything, even though those are the words from my mouth. My initial reaction to not reaching one of the goals was disappointment. And the goal for next year was set lower than this year.
I have to wonder if we aren't limiting God. If we felt He led us to setting that goal, only we hinder Him from delivering. Our "year" isn't over yet, and if He's as great as I say He is, why do I doubt He'll do what we ask?
As we got closer to that goal this week, with the remainder of the month ahead of us, my prayer is the same as the man with sick child in Mark 9:24 - Lord, I believe, help my unbelief!
