How to pray when you feel nothing
You do not pray only because you feel; you pray because you want to stay.
There are days when praying feels dry, distracted, or useless. But prayer does not depend solely on the emotion of the moment.
Praying is also about being there, trusting, and turning back to God with simplicity. As in human love, fidelity is shown especially when not everything comes easily.
Praying does not require pretending. You can bring your fatigue, distraction, and doubts to God in simple words, just as you speak to someone you truly care about.
