“I pray in ways that allow me to remain emotionally guarded. These prayers sound faithful, but they quietly keep my heart protected. I will stand in “faith” and ask for what feels reasonably achievable, rather than audaciously asking for what is ridiculous and miraculous. It’s subtle, but it’s control. It allows me to say, “I believe God” and “I’ve prayed,” while never fully offering Him trust. These are prayers that sound spiritual, but are quietly masked in unbelief and fear of disappointment.”
