Dear Lord, I know you are there but I am having a hard time keeping my faith. I ask that you give me strength and bless my mind and soul so I can have the feeling that you are all around me. I have discussed this problem that I am currently having with others about my lack of faith, and they have encouraged me to keep praying and keep believing but sometimes, it is just so hard when difficult and upsetting things keep occurring. Today, I ask you to give me strength and ease my mind that you are here with me, and will always be.
