Default Prayer for faith

I am having a difficult time lately. I've been dealing with a lot of health problems from HBP to female issues. The doctor had put me on medication to try to help me and my husband get pregnant but instead it's caused more problems. This has been an ongoing thing now for over 5 years. It's terrible not knowing if you'll ever be able to give your husband the child that you know he desires. I've seen 6 or 7 doctors and none of them can see any reason why I can't get pregnant, yet it's not happening. I am really struggling with my faith. Everyone keeps telling me that prayer works but it seems like every time I pray my prayers bounce off the ceiling. No matter how hard I try not to get discouraged, something always happens to make me angry and want to give up. I used to have a couple of friends at church dealing with infertility issues also but since then all of them have had children. I'm the only one that nothing seems to be working for. My faith is, at best, struggling. I don't know how to pray anymore and don't feel like it would do any good anyway. I feel like I'm being tortured for all the terrible things I've done in the past even though I've asked for forgiveness for all of them. I don't know if God hears prayers, if he does, they aren't mine but I really need help getting through this. It's put me in a constant state of depression that I can't get out of. Please help!

Your prayers are not bouncing off the ceiling. God hears you, always. If you've asked for forgiveness for your past sins, let it go. Don't keep bringing it back. God has forgiven you. He hears your prayers and will answer them in His time, which is not always our time. Dear Heavenly Father, please hear and answer the cries and prayers of your child. Bless her with the child she so desperately wants for your glory, if it be your will. Keep her strong and faithful. Keep her prayerful. Please remove all negative thoughts. In the name of Jesus.

Oh I'm sorry to hear about your situation, but it sounds to me that since there has been so many bad things that has happened to you, you have lost your faith. You are allowing evil to take over which is causing the true destruction. Pray to our heavenly father - he will hear you, but you must BELIEVE, have HOPE, FAITH and TRUST in our lord. God has plans for all of us. Be strong, fight off the demons that are taking over your faith. I will be praying for you. God Bless

Dear Friend, i believe that first we need to be able to accept His will. And sometimes that means not giving us the things we desire. And for very good reasons we cannot understand.

The Lord hears the prayers of the righteous in deeds, but the righteous in deeds also accept His will whatever that may be.

Dear friend, i know it is very painful, but i want to encourage you to surrender your childbearing to Him.

You are letting your flustration and anger hinder your relationship with God. You need to Prayer that God's Perfect Will be done. God Hears your Prayer. He might be trying your faith in this. Draw close to Him and He will draw close to you. Begin to Believe and Thank God for the positive things He has done for you. I am Praying that God will give you the desires of your heart. You Pray and Believe the same. God Bless you for asking for Prayer. ODIE
