Regardless of your cirstances, always pray in faith. If you are facing a test of integrity, follow the counsel of the disciple James. Turn to Jehovah in prayer, and do not doubt that he can give you the wisdom needed to cope with your trial. (Jas. 1:5-8) God is aware of any disturbing thoughts you may have, and he can guide and comfort you by means of his spirit. Open your heart to him in full faith, “not doubting at all,” and accept the guidance of his spirit and the counsel of his Word. Childless Hannah, one of the Levite Elkanah’s two wives, prayed for a son and had faith that her prayer would be answered. (1 Sam. 1:9-18) Your taking time to meditate on her prayer on that occasion may well enrich your own prayers and help you to see that even sadness over a distressing problem can be overcome if you pray in faith that Jehovah will answer you.—1 Sam. 2:1-10.
