Former seminarian here.

For the last several years (around 3) I have not participated in the sacraments due to an almost complete lack of belief in God. For the last week or two, I’ve started feeling pulled to return to the sacraments. Please pray for me that if God exists, he shows me the way and gives me the courage to come back to Him.
 
Luckily for you, God does exist (having difficulty believing him doesn’t make him non existent), but you do have my prayers! God bless!
 
Prayer for Faith

Lord, I believe: I wish to believe in Thee.
Lord, let my faith be full and unreserved,
and let it penetrate my thought, my way
of judging Divine things and human things.
Lord, let my faith be joyful and give peace
and gladness to my spirit, and dispose it
for prayer with God and conversation
with men, so that the inner bliss of its
fortunate possession may shine forth
in sacred and secular conversation.
Lord, let my faith be humble and not
presume to be based on the experience
of my thought and of my feeling; but let
it surrender to the testimony of the Holy
Spirit, and not have any better guarantee
than in docility to tradition and to the
authority of the magisterium of the Holy
Church. Amen.
– Pope Paul VI
 
Prayed for you and will continue to do so through the Divine Mercy Chaplet. Jesus is always ready to welcome you back. Should you decide to return to the sacraments and re-commit to the Catholic faith, I hope you message me. GOD bless.
 
Saint Michael, the archangel, defend us in battle, be our defense against the wickedness and snares of the devil, may God rebuke him, we humbly pray. And do you, O’ Prince of the Heavenly host, by the power of God thrust into Hell Satan and all the other evil spirits who prowl about the world for the ruin of souls.

Amen.

Our Father who art in Heaven, hallowed be thy name.

Thy kingdom come, thy will be done on Earth as it is in Heaven.

Give us this day our daily bread.

And forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us.

And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil.

Amen.

Hail Mary, full of grace, the Lord is with thee.

Blessed are you among women, and blessed is the fruit of your womb Jesus.

Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us sinners, now and at the hour of our death.

Amen.

O Blood and Water, which gushed forth from the Heart of Jesus as a fountain of Mercy for us, I trust in You!

Our Father, Who art in heaven, hallowed be Thy name; Thy kingdom come; Thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread; and forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those who trespass against us; and lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil, Amen.

Eternal Father, I offer you the Body and Blood, Soul and Divinity of Your Dearly Beloved Son, Our Lord, Jesus Christ, in atonement for our sins and those of the whole world.

For the sake of His sorrowful Passion, have mercy on us and on the whole world. x10

Holy God, Holy Mighty One, Holy Immortal One, have mercy on us and on the whole world.
 
Go with it!
Our Father, Hail Mary, Glory Be, Fatima, Amen!
