Do you ever feel like this deep down in your spirit? How long, O LORD??? Do you ever pray and wonder if the LORD is listening? Does He hear? Does He care about the anguish in your soul?

We may not always be able to see that He ..read more

The Best Prayers Often Have More Groans than Words   Psalm 5:1–2 (ESV) 1 Give ear to my words, O LORD; consider my groaning. 2 Give attention to the sound of my cry, my King and my God, for to you do I pray.
