I was explaining prayer to Mary and the saints and one guy kept saying , 'you are lost, you are lost' I'm just like, 'be a good shepherd come after me!' Saying I'm lost and believing it are different. Doesn't faith come from uncertainty?

Got it, definitely different.

I remember going hiking at about the time when Garmin GPS units were first becoming available.
The people with these expensive (at the time) GPS things (way beyond what I could afford) we're
always grinning and telling other people "you are lost". While this was sometimes not the case for
others, in my case they were always right. I realized something then that I had never been aware of:
When I was hiking I would usually get lost and unlost many times without realizing it.

I wonder if that works the same way with religion?

"Doesn't faith come from uncertainty?"
I thought faith was all about certainty.
That's what I envy about those who have it: Certainty.
