prayer and cancer

A few days ago I was faced with the deadly sins that I see in my life...my pride, my slothfulness, my unbelief, the fact that I put my hope in things other than the Lord...and as I went to bed I was thinking about prayer. And this was my thought: I know that Jesus Christ is my ONLY hope, but sometimes I kind of think of prayer as taking some new and unproven medicine to cure my cancer. Sometimes I don't think prayer is really going to work, but I know I have no other hope and it's my best bet.

How awful is that? And yet totally normal, and I am sure other people feel like that sometimes...right?
