how do you grow faith? confused that is a hard one to answer. Prayer, staying with God through it all, that is about all I can think of. It depends on the person. I know that by sticking to His side I have grown in faith, maybe it will work for you.

Read your Bible everyday, He really shows you alot through it, and it gives you more direction.. Like in one place ( I'll post it later) it says to "pray without cease". So I think of everything I say, and I consider it a conversation with God, no matter what it is. Like a conversation witha good friend. That is what He is. Good accountability too.

im really busy during the week so i just slip in a small prayer any time i can. it is false belief that every prayer has to be eloquent, but it doesnt. the prayer i say everyday is 'god i thank you for letting me live today' and thats usually the only prayer i get in. thats usually all i need to stay closer to god.

Not every prayer you say has to begin with "God". It's like talking to a close friend. I don't start off every conversation with Rikonah by saying "Rikonah, ... " It could be as simple as, " Look at those beautiful trees.." Just comments here or there praise Him too.

You say thanking God for being alive is all you need to keep you close to Him, but imagine the other levels of faith you can reach by praying more often, doing devotionals, just talking to Him, reading His word.
