I believe, help my unbelief!

"I believe, help my unbelief!" cries the father who has brought his sick son to Jesus (Mark 9:24).
Like all who have long prayed for a suffering family member, the man is brought to the brink. While he sees the strength, conviction and love of Jesus -- before his very eyes -- he acknowledges the forces against him are ancient, mighty and hideous.
A reflection on what we do when we find our own prayer the prayer of this father -- "I believe, help me in my unbelief."
