Has it become hard for you to pray?

Have you been passing through a time when you are tired of body and sick of heart? Do you find it difficult to focus your mind on biblical promises? Has it become hard for you to pray? Don't write your self off as a spiritual castaway. You are joining a host of God's people who have experienced the dark night of the soul. When we endure such times all we can do- indeed all we need do- is lie still in God's arms like a child and trust. God knows we need His soothing care. In times of trouble, His mercy holds up. We must trust Him to carry us through that dark night of the soul and on into the dawning light. ~Psalm 94:18-19
