We understand your feelings of doubt and despair, ###, but we want to assure you that God's love for you is unfailing and eternal. In times of trial and tribulation, it's not uncommon to feel distant from God, but remember His promise in Hebrews 13:5, "I will in no way leave you, neither will I in any way forsake you."
Firstly, let's address the feeling that God does not love you. God's love is clearly demonstrated through the sacrifice of His son, Jesus Christ. As it is written in John 3:16, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish, but have eternal life." This verse assures us that God's love is not conditional or fickle but is poured out abundantly for all who believe in Him.
Secondly, regarding feeling unheard, know that God is always listening. In 1 John 5:14-15, it is written, "This is the boldness which we have toward him, that if we ask anything according to his will, he listens to us. And if we know that he listens to us, whatever we ask, we know that we have the petitions which we have asked of him." When you pray, trust that God hears you and that He will answer according to His will and in His timing.
Finally, in the midst of your trials, hold onto the truth that God cares for you deeply. Romans 8:28 reminds us, "We know that all things work together for good for those who love God, to those who are called according to his purpose." Even in your darkest moments, God is working all things together for your good and His glory.
Let us pray for you:
Dear Heavenly Father,
We lift up ### to you, Lord. In the midst of their trials and tribulations, we ask that You reveal Your unfailing love to them. Help them to feel Your presence and to trust that You hear their prayers. Comfort them with the knowledge that You care deeply for them and that all their struggles are seen and known by You. Strengthen their faith and help them to endure patiently, knowing that You are working all things together for their good. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
Lastly, we notice that your request does not mention the name of Jesus. It is only through Jesus that we have access to God, as it is written in John 14:6, "Jesus said to him, 'I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father, except through me.'" We encourage you to call upon the name of Jesus in your prayers, for there is great power and comfort in His name.

We're right there with you, feeling the weight of uncertainty and the echo of unanswered prayers. It's easy to question God's love and presence when we're in the thick of it, isn't it? But remember, even in the mist of our trials, God is there, right beside us, loving us more deeply than we can comprehend. As Psalm 34:18 tells us, "The Lord is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit." He sees you, He hears you, and He's working everything out for your good, even if it doesn't feel like it right now.
Let's cling to the promise in Matthew 11:28-29, "Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls." Jesus invites us to come to Him, to rest in Him, even in our toughest times.
Let's pray together:
Dear Heavenly Father, we lift up our dear friend to You today. We ask that You comfort them in their trials, reminding them of Your constant presence and unfailing love. Help them to trust in Your timing and Your plan, even when it's hard to see. Give them strength and patience to endure, and fill them with Your peace that surpasses all understanding. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.

God is love...however Satan is constantly prowling around looking for people to steal..kill...or destroy..then when life is bad he whispers..." See God doesn't care about you..." Jesus said " In this life we will have trouble..but be of good cheer...I have overcome the world" Keep pressing on..child of God. Praying for a positive shift for you and for divine intervention in your trials/ tribulations in Jesus name. Amen. Sorry you are going through so much.

Please find the poem Footprints. God speaks to us in ways He knows we will listen. If you think of a song, you should look up the lyrics. You should pay attention to your thoughts and dreams. You must have faith. I pray God’s will for your life will be done. You should ask God to show you the way. You must give back and help others even during your time of need. When I gave back during the hardest times, I received blessings. I pray you find the desires in your heart. I pray God helps you see His vision and goals for your life. God loves you. God knows best. I hope you trust Him, and I hope He gives you answers and solutions. I am sending you love and hugs.

Thank you for giving us the privilege to pray on your behalf. We are glad that that you asked us to stand in agreement with you in prayer. If your request was answered, please post a praise report and let us all know. If your request does not seem to have been answered, please post it again as a new request and allow us to continue with you in prayer. We all hope that our prayers are answered in the way that we want. Sometimes we believe that God is not answering our prayers because we do not see what we expect. In these cases, we should persist in prayer and determine how God is answering our prayer. May God bless you as you continue to seek him through his son, Jesus Christ.

Pray and ask God why is he taking so long to answer my prayer and what do I do in the midst of waiting for a ### and a job. Although I still hold on to God but I don't know how long will this be achieved and it is very frustrating to just sit and wait for things to happen where it had not.
God why does it feel like money alludes me, no matter if I try, don't try, chase it, not chase it—is it all a test to remain neutral? trusting? resourceful?
Dear God hear our prayers as we go through trials and tribulations. Love you our God. Thank you amen
