Sometimes, (especially in these hard times) we go through so much in one day or over time that we find ourselves not wanting to pray or maybe not having the energy to pray. I believe it is in these "dry" times that the Lord finds our prayer even more precious because we are persevering through prayer not because we have a warm fuzzy feeling to do so but because we are doing it out of love. Compare it to having a rough day and going home. You may not feel like talking to your Spouse or kids but do you ignore them? Of course not! So it is the same with our Lord. It is a relationship that must be nourished daily. So think about what you do with your husband, wife, best friend,etc...when you're feeling down or blue...Doesn't it help sometimes to just be in their presence and sit quietly with them and watch t.v. or watch a sunset? This is how we should treat our Lord. Can't find the words to pray because of heartache, or hard times? Run to the Tabernacle and just sit next to Him and listen! You don't need to think or speak...let Him do the tallking..I promise all of you that you will leave feeling more at peace with your situation than you did when you walked in. Remember we may not be able to control our world...but God can! So put it in His hands....and let Him know you haven't forgotten about Him. We're all human ..but remember the only difference between a sinner and a saint is the saint gets up and keeps trying. The sinner never pulls himself up out of the mud. I'm praying for you all and for our world...please keep me in your prayers as well! God love you all!
