faith like a child

oh to come to God with a request and have the faith of a child. As adults, something in us has died...our ability to fully trust. After seeing God work in so many ways, after seeing prayer after prayer answered and watching God perform miracles in answer to prayer, I still have some sort of inability to trust my God fully. Why is this? Why does a child not lack the faith but we do??

We have been asking God for a confirmation about an opportunity we have to go to Latvia in September and He gave it to us. Of course He did. We asked Him. But part of me thought I'd have to get that confirmation solely based on my "feelings." Ya know--I felt good about going so maybe God's saying yes. But no...God answers prayers--in crazy ways sometimes! For whatever reason, it still surprises me!

"Oh ye of little faith."

God, increase my faith! Increase my trust in You. Thank you that you answer our prayers and hear your children! Help me to remember moments like these when I'm in another "delay" and can't figure out what's going on.

I love you, Lord!
