Instead of praying that He will show you, why not ask that He will give you the wisdom to know what to do?

Hi, Crystal!

 Offer prayer, sacrifice, fasting, etc., to Jesus.  Attend daily Mass, if you can.  Pray before the Blessed Sacrament.  Go to Confession regularly.  Then, give yourself to Jesus and ask Him to take over your life and guide you.

God bless!

 

[St_Francis]

Ask Him to help you, but don’t specify the way He should help you. And the advice to pray, go to Mass, and fast is very good. Offer up all your sacrifices, both voluntary and involuntary, to Christ.

You’ve got the wrong focus. Jesus had already told us what to do - become more holy. The point is NOT to know what God’s plan for us is. It will just happen, He’ll make sure of it, the holier you become. Take the focus away from you knowing everything and move it towards God. Make Him in charge of your life and just give up, He’ll lead you to do what needs to be done.

Plus, asking Him for a vision sounds a bit like tempting God. Not a good idea

They may seem unsolvable to us, but with God anything is possible…

But Jesus beheld them, and said unto them, “With men this is impossible; but with God all things are possible.”
Matthew 19:26 KJV

Also, we are not to lean on our own understanding but instead trust in God with all our heart…

Trust in the LORD with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding.
Proverbs 3:5

And yes it always ok to pray for guidance. In fact, God wants us to go to Him for exactly that. Whatever you ask the Father, ask it in Jesus’ name…

And whatsoever ye shall ask in my name, that will I do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son.
John 14:13 KJV

why don’t you simply pray to God and ask him to reveal his will for you in his own chosen way, rather than dictating how he speaks to you. Meanwhile you can converse with him in the normal way, through prayer, reading scripture prayfully in openness to the Holy Spirit and most of all frequent recourse to the sacraments and continuing conversion in your manner of living. Don’t refuse help from humans he puts in your path, either.

I like what a lot of the other posters are saying.

I noticed you asked about prayer for guidance about what you should do.

If the problem is truly “unsolvable” then nothing you can do will solve it.

Maybe you can pray for the serenity to accept it, even as you’re praying for wisdom and all the other things that have been suggested.

I’m not saying roll over and ignore it. Just that you fully accept and embrace this problem, and learn to be at peace even with it in place. Then your mind and heart will be at peace and truly opened – inviting God unconditionally into your life.
