If

"if" Is this a word of doubt? The man in Mark 9:14-24 begs Jesus to heal his son If he can.  Jesus answers him with a question. "if you can?"  Jesus goes on to say that Everything is possible for him who believes.
Do I believe?  My heart shouts the same words the man in this passage proclaims. "I do believe; help me overcome my unbelief!"  How many prayers do I pray using "if"  If you will... if you can... if you are glorified... If it is in your will.  Do I use "if "as a disclaimer.  The just-in-case-my-faith-is-not-big-enough word.  God can do all things.  I know He may not choose to, but He can.  Am I bold enough to believe or is there an "if" buried somewhere there?  Help me overcome my "if"
