Do You Believe?

Matthew 21:18-22
Early in the morning, as He was walking on His way back to the city, He was hungry. Seeing a fig tree by the road, He went up to it but found nothing on it except leaves. Then He said to it, "May you never bear fruit again!" Immediately the tree withered.
When the disciples saw this, they were amazed. "How did the fig tree wither so quickly?" they asked.
Jesus replied, "I tell you the truth, if you have faith and do not doubt, not only can you do what was done to the fig tree, but also you can say to this mountain, 'Go, throw yourself into the sea,' and it will be done. If you believe, you will receive whatever you ask for in prayer."

I believe in my prayers. What about you?
Someone told me some time ago, if we don't believe in our prayers, then it is better not pray!
I think that someone is right, in fact, it is a good advice!
I have faith in God, first because He is the creator of every single thing in this universe. Next because He created me .....who, may be just another small, unimportant creature. Yet, He does not leave me to survive on my own.
You, too ...... must believe in your prayers. God is listening. Even if your faith is only as small as a mustard seed, believe in it too.

Little Faith

Matthew 8 : 24 - 26
"Without a warning, a furious storm came up on the lake, so that the waves swept over the boat. But Jesus was sleeping. The disciples went and woke him, saying, "Lord. save us! We're going to drown!"
He replied' "You of little faith, why are you so afraid?" Then he got up and rebuked the winds and the waves, and it was completely calm."

Mark 6 : 47 - 51
"When evening came, the boat was in the middle of the lake, and he was alone on land. He saw the disciples straining at the oars, because the wind was against them. About the fourth watch of the night he went out to them, walking on the lake. He was about to pass by them, but when they saw him walking on the lake, they thought he was a ghost. They cried out because they all saw him and were terrified.
Immediately he spoke to them and said, "Take courage! It is I. Don't be afraid."
Then he climbed into the boat with them, and the wind died down. They were completely amazed, ................"

We are just like Jesus' disciples. We claim to know Jesus, but we are still in doubt whenever there is a difficulty in front of us.
How many Easters do we need to get out of this doubt that Jesus will not leave us alone in stormy weathers ?1
Do we need to hear Him rebuking us again and again,

"You of little faith, why are you so afraid?"
