There was a night I sat on my bed, tears falling faster than the words I could pray.
“God, are You still there?” I whispered.
Honestly, I didn’t feel strong anymore.
Because sometimes, faith doesn’t roar, it trembles.
Sometimes it’s not a shout of victory; it’s a quiet whisper through tears: “Lord, help my unbelief.”
I had done everything I knew- prayed, fasted, encouraged others, yet nothing seemed to change.
My faith, once loud and fiery, had become a trembling whisper.
There are days faith feels strong, and you can conquer anything.
Then there are days it feels fragile- when you’re holding on to promises that seem delayed, when you’ve prayed for months and nothing changes.
It’s like holding a candle in the wind, shielding it with trembling hands, hoping the light doesn’t go off.
But here’s the truth no one tells you: even faith that shakes still speaks.
Even when all you can say is “Lord, help me,” it’s still a prayer Heaven hears.
He honors your trying, even when you’re tired.
He sees your small steps, your weary prayers, your silent tears that say, “God, I still trust You.”
Sometimes faith isn’t standing tall; sometimes it’s crawling on bruised knees, still moving forward.
Sometimes it’s crying yourself to sleep and still waking up saying, “God, I trust You.”
God never asked for perfect faith- just real faith.
And even the tiniest mustard seed can move mountains.
So if your faith feels fragile, don’t let shame win.
You’re not a failure; you’re human.
And the God who caught Peter when he began to sink is still reaching for you right now.
Hold on, not because you’re strong, but because He is.
Your shaken faith is still enough for a faithful God.
Even mustard-seed faith can move mountains- not because it’s big, but because it’s real.
You don’t have to have it all together.
You just have to keep believing that God is still faithful, even when your faith feels like it’s fading.
So breathe.
And let your fragile faith rest in God unfailing strength.
