Prayer is the tool to utilizing faith. Continuing to pray and having conversations with the Lord is to solve, resolve, and release thoughts clouding the mind and heart, as well as practicing a way of giving praise and thanksgiving for the beautiful moments one encounters because of Him.
But to push forward! To continue to walk on rather than retreat back! We must practice what He tells us in these conversations we have with Him. Only then can we come to full circle and truly understand the benefits of having genuine faith in ourselves and others. Having pure and true love for ourselves and for others...
...so that our own selfish and personal conflicts may leave our bodies...that they will be lifted from ourselves and given to the One who is truly meant to handle them.
And *why* has He promised this to us? Because if we continue to rely solely on ourselves and choose to stay clouded, we remain stagnant. How will we ever be able to help others in need if we refuse to help ourselves?
Prayer is only one part. Petition is a strong, yet mere tool. We must have faith in the faith that we claim to keep. Act on the answers given to us. Only then are we blessed with the opportunity to genuinely smile. And in turn, begin to get the glimpse of the open door we will soon be able to walk through.
