Sometimes it easier to pray than at other times.
Sometimes it is easier to believe than others, typically when things make sense or are going in a way pleasing to our nature.
Don’t allow your faith to be driven by the circumstances.
You will strengthen your faith, increase your spirit, when you exercise good faith at times when it is difficult.
Seems like prayer life in anemic, pray harder.
Seems like God isn’t there, believe, more, that he is and will show you when the time is right.
Don’t pray for the understanding of why things happen, pray for the faith to accept that God is always there and you need only to trust.
