“Every day I call to You, my God, but You do not answer. Every night You hear my voice, but I find no relief.” (Psalm 22:2 NLT) Why is prayer so hard sometimes?

Chosen
“Lord, hear my prayer! Listen to my plea! Don’t turn away from me in my time of distress. Bend down to listen, and answer me quickly when I call to You.
