A Prayer For When You Feel Stuck

A Prayer for when you feel stuck

Dear God,

I’m feeling stuck right now, and this stuckness is causing me to feel a multitude of emotions.

I know I should trust your plan, but it’s hard when I can’t see it clearly. I know I’m supposed to rest in the fact that you’re guiding me, but what if I have doubts? What if it feels like you’re distant? And honestly, what if I’m afraid to fully trust you when it matters most?

Some days, I feel confident, like I’ve got everything under control. On those days, it’s easy to think I don’t need you. But then there are days when everything feels chaotic, and I’m left confused and frustrated like I’m just spinning my wheels and getting nowhere. That’s where I am right now.

I’m unsure of what to do next, who I’m becoming, or where my path leads. I know I have to trust, and I want to; I am trying, but there are some days when that feels challenging. I surrender that I need trust to get to where I want to go.

And if I’m being real, that scares me. It feels like I’m missing something important, like I’m not where I should be, just stumbling through life without a clear direction. I need a sign, proof, and knowledge of what to do to get through.

I understand, though, that having a relationship with God, a higher power, and the universe is about trust. I have to trust that clarity will come. I have to trust that I will get to where I need to get to. I understand that I cannot have all of the answers right now. Even though I feel stuck, and that causes me stress, anger, and other stronger emotions, I am going to stay connected to prayer because prayer heals me. Prayer brings my nervous system to a calm. Prayer gives me the clarity I need, even in confusing times.

I pray for clarity.

I pray for resolve.

I pray for inner peace.

I pray that I feel less stuck and I trust that these emotions will begin to flow like water.
