Help me trust God, my trust is blocked during prayer

[momof2angells]

Thank you for your suggestion to offer mass and for the beautiful prayer. You all have really armed me with a brotherly live that is very warming, I love my brothers and sisters in Christ who really are closer in spirit than my biological siblings who couldn’t offer me this kind of advice. I have more ammo for the battle the enemy is trying to have with my mind. I sure do love and fear God and sometimes when I pray I even apologize because I feel unworthy (because of the green wood scenario). Anyhow, thank you so very much.

I don’t think that you’re alone in trying to understand “what” is happening in the world, and “why” it is happening…

I ask myself these types of questions, too, and I honestly don’t have a good answer except that people have their own free will, and that we also live in a fallen world filled with sin, where people tend to think of themselves, where oftentimes they don’t really care if they’re hurting others.

Sometimes when I pray I’ll just ask the Good Lord when He’s even going to come again, because I feel like this broken world needs Him.

At the same time, I have to tell myself that God does know what is happening in this world, and that everything would probably be even worse than it already is, if He didn’t already intervene in ways that we probably don’t even know about.

Just know that you’re not alone in your thoughts. Some of this is difficult to comprehend.

May God bless you and your dear ones!

Thank you for your thoughtful response, a part of what you wrote reminds of when i was little and my mom used to say, after some catastrophe on the news, that she wished the Lord would come already amd be done with this world, something like that. The battle is definitely real, thank God for spiritual weapons. I still work 9-5 full time raising children and sadly my free time is short (I do wake up early to read the Magnificat and try to attend daily mass) but I honestly fantasize about spending my days scheduling in prayers, rosary, confession, Mass, Adoration , if I could just spend my days doing that my soul would be very happy!!! God bless you.
