You have decided that you need to go to God for a blessing, but you hesitate because you have not the faith to ask for it.  You ponder the magnitude of your imagined request, but you are fearful of asking God.  You do know (intellectually) that God answers prayer, but you struggle with tainted faith.  Faith is tainted when it seeks approval from the worldly ones.  Faith is untainted when you go to God and lay out your request before Him.  Without faith it is impossible to please God.
