Contradictions Between What We Teach and What We Believe

I agree as far as the crossing of "T's" but we have to be able to support what we claim. On the subject of maybe needing more faith then you do believe it depends on you and not God. OK  I am not saying we shouldn't pray. I am saying if we pray for our own good or we pray with any doubts James says God will NOT be listening.
 
When Jesus told the disciples to pray "give us our daily bread" he was using an example not guarantee. People in the United States with access to food from some source do not relate to people in other countries who during famines have no food source within a hundred miles see Malawi. How do you explain thousands of Christians starving to death in Malawi while Christians in the United States go on diets so they will not eat too much? Only folks who have things pretty much in control believe God provides for them. Those without have no God supplying them.
 
One of the results of our teaching is people claiming to be followers of Jesus not believing. They see no practical reason for Jesus. We teach protection/security/health in THIS life and when folks do not experience it they see us as liars or worse.
