A Prayer When God Feels Far Away | Your Daily Prayer

There are times in our walk with God when His presence feels near — when prayer flows easily, Scripture feels alive, and worship fills our hearts with joy.

There are days, O Lord, when I feel so alone — when my prayers seem to echo and my faith feels faint. In those moments, remind me that You have never left. Thank You for Jesus, who experienced separation so that I never would. Help me to rest in the truth that You are with me, even when I can’t feel You near. Strengthen my faith, calm my anxious heart, and draw me close to You once again. Even in silence, help me to trust that You are speaking. Even in darkness, help me to remember that You are light. Thank You for Your unfailing presence and love. In Jesus’ name, Amen.
