Increase My Faith To Remove My Doubts

The apostles said to the Lord, “Increase our faith!” (Luke 17:5 ESV)

I can relate to the apostles’ request. How often I’ve prayed a similar request. But I don’t have a desire to throw mulberry trees into the sea, or to move mountains. I want to increase my faith in order to have an all consuming faith without doubt.

Can I say that? That I am a Christian who sometimes has doubts?

That’s why I’ve asked “increase my faith”. I want a faith that works it’s way through my whole life. I want a faith that’s real, alive and vibrant. I want a faith that allows me to put aside my fears and to step out on faith. I want a faith that causes me to live like Jesus would.

Is this too much to ask?
