There are moments when you want to pray and nothing comes - not because you don't believe, but because what you're carrying is too heavy, too strange, or too painful to put into words.
When grief leaves you speechless. When fear keeps you up at night. When the phone hasn't rung with results yet. When the bills are due and the numbers don't work. When a relationship is quietly falling apart. When you've prayed for the same thing for years and nothing has changed. When you're disappointed, ashamed, angry, exhausted - and not sure where God is in any of it.
When I Don't Know What to Pray is a collection of 100 Scripture-anchored prayers, each written around one specific situation, so you can turn straight to the page that sounds like what you're facing today.
INSIDE, YOU'LL FIND PRAYERS FOR:
- Grief and the loss of someone you love
- Fear, anxiety, overthinking, and uncertainty
- Illness, medical tests, diagnoses, and caregiving
- Bills, debt, job loss, and financial pressure
- Marriage strain, betrayal, conflict, and broken relationships
- Worry for your children, your spouse, your parents, the people you love most
- Waiting, when nothing seems to be changing
- Guilt, regret, shame, and the struggle to forgive yourself
- Doubt, anger with God, spiritual dryness, and weakened faith
- Difficult decisions, new beginnings, and starting over
There's no required order. Begin wherever you actually are.
HONEST PRAYERS. NO PRETENDING.
You don't have to clean up your emotions before coming to God. You can simply say: I'm scared. I'm angry. I miss them. I don't understand. I'm tired of waiting. I don't know what to do. God, help me.
Each prayer sits with the pain first - then asks honestly for comfort, wisdom, provision, courage, forgiveness, healing, direction, endurance, or peace.
SCRIPTURE FOR THE MOMENT YOU'RE IN
Every prayer closes with A Word to Hold On To - a full Scripture passage, not just a reference. Use it exactly as written, personalize it with names and details, or let it show you how to keep praying in your own words.
Whether you're grieving, waiting, worrying over someone you love, or facing a decision you can't see past - this book gives you somewhere to start.
Because sometimes a prayer is long. And sometimes it's only three words:
God, help me.
