Prayer can be HARD, but it's especially hard when we as Christian single moms don't quite believe that God will answer-- at least, not in the way we'd hope. Our hearts can get overwhelmed with fear and anxiety, until we learn to approach the Father in TRUST... trust in His love, His sovereignty, His wisdom, and trust that He IS ready and willing to hear us. We have a God who answers prayer! Learn three steps toward praying with trust, striking a deathblow to anxious thinking.
