Beloved of All
It's been a long time since I prayed to God. I don't even know what to say to God. I don't know if he is aware of my problems. I've been praying to God and for years I believed He heard my prayers. I believed He looked out for me and was taking care of me, but looking back now, I see that just the opposite happened. I've lost absolutely everything. My marriage, my children, my money, my house... everything. So here I am. I have no idea what to pray and if I did pray, how am I supposed to have faith and trust that God will take care of me, because I've lost everything even though I was praying and believing for years.... I don’t know how or what to pray. I don’t know how to have faith again. I just can’t do this anymore.
 
Our God of peace, you have taught us that in returning and rest we shall be saved, in quietness and in confidence shall be our strength: By the might of your Spirit answer this request, we pray of you, so we may be still and know that you are God; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
 
I had the same situation wondering how to pray to God after all the wrongs but I found hope from singing. I just had to keep going. The only thing you need to do is get in the right position with God and believe. Without faith, your prayers are invalid. I doubt myself so many times and said I CAN'T do it anymore, but realize this: there is no such thing as I CAN'T. Yes, you can. Just pray and find something or a talent you're good at and give praise to God with it! I believe you can do it <3
 
Our Father that is in heaven, we come to you at this very moment in our lives, when we are in a place that feels dark and devoid of your love, but heavenly Father we know that this is just the devil's ways of trying to turn us from your love. We humble ourselves before you, knowing that you have never left us, but have carried us through this pain and loneliness we are feeling. You are closer to us now in our hour of need than ever before in our lives. We need only call and you are there, ready to help and forgive. So Jesus, we call on you today and place our troubles and our bodies before your throne as a living witness of our love and trust in you. We ask only that your will be done in our lives. Help us to understand when things don't go the way we want them to in the prayers we pray. Show us that your way is the best way, and give us peace with that knowledge. In the darkest of times, let us feel your mighty arms as they draw us to you for safe keeping. IN Jesus name we ask, Amen.

The reason why I don't have faith or believe in God is because I've been dreaming for the last month, even with taking the medication, that I'm put back up in Indianapolis or people from there come down here that I don't want. I ask God to please not make me end up around or bring them around me...

I've posted a prayer request here a couple of times and am interested in hearing some feedback on a particular topic. Besides myself, I've noticed a number of other posters requesting God to turn back/reverse time/space/matter. Some of these requests are serious and seem completely legitimate...
