"Just keep showing up" is very good advice. Sometimes prayer is easy; sometimes prayer is difficult. All of us go through ups and downs in prayer, but what is important is to keep showing up. It is not about what we are doing, but what God is doing in us and with us when we show up. Be there and know that God is there. We may not feel anything; we may be full of distractions; we may be crying out for help and God does not seem to hear. Do not fool yourself. God is always present and He knows why He allows us to feel that He may be absent. Trust me. God is never absent and some of those agonizing prayer periods may be full of grace for us and for others. Let God be God and just show up and be grateful for the prayer periods when all is consolation.
