This sounds exactly like me! Thanks for the honesty of your message Emma. I feel like I over complicate prayer sometimes as I find being still and listening really difficult. Thanks for the encouragement 🙏

Hi Emma. Thank you for sharing. My problem is not in praying to our Lord and God My problem is that, when I say the Rosary every day., And I must add that I am in no way bored, but completely involved, I start to yawn, my eyes stream, this goes on throughout the whole Rosary. Once I have finished, all the yawing and eyes streaming end. I have tried different times of the day to recite the Rosary, yet it is always the same scenario. Tired or fresh and alert.

I thought it was just me!

Thank you so much Emma! I’ve been there. I needed to hear this message. I thought it was my age. I’m in my 70’s. Yes, be still and listen to the Holy Spirit.

I am also in my 70’s and keep that morning prayer open throughout the day…till I say good night! Share the gift for 24 hours with the Most Precious Holy Spirit! We are all so blessed beyond what we could possibly deserve!💖

Thanku Emma. Through you, his channel, God let me know he knows where I am at, words in prayer is not happening for me, all I can do is sit, be still n just say praise u jesus. Your words reminded me, Jesus letting me know He knows already my hearts prayer, even when I can’t pray. Romans Scripture u read was spot on so was Matthew. Thanku for being his channel of peace, love n his voice…

Thank you Emma,
So nice to know that I can just sit in silence when I am lost for words,cause I feel like I am continually repeating myself and even start thinking that God must be tired of hearing the same request over and over again.
