doubt in prayer?...:(

[eunice]

well, i dnt know if this is exactly a struggle, (so if its not, please movee it, thanks ) but i dnt know where else to put this. Yesterday i was praying, right and suddenly I started thinking of all these things, like "am i praying the right way?" and then my mind started drifting away and I also began to doubt...i wondered "does God really hear me?" Now I've nvr had this problem of the 6 mths i've been a Christian, I've always believed that prayer is indeed very powerful, and that it is a way of communicating with our LORD. But all of a sudden, yesterday night I jst wondered: "does He REALLY REALLY hear me? Am i doing this right? What if all my efforts are wasted and He actually can't hear me, or I'm doing this wrong so he cant?" And then i jst started crying and stuff...and as i've said i'v nvr had this problem before, and maybe ddeep down i DO believe that ing works....but like. I dunt know..and I'm sorry, I don't even noe what I want you guys to help me with...I guess i jst wanted to spill everything out to see if any of you ppl have comments to give...please help, idnt know whts wrong with me alla sudden...so can He hear ME?....

GOD HEARS YOU. Believe me He does. Just DON'T stop.

If you are sincere, which you seem to be, then that is what matters more than if "am I talking right, am I kneeling right" ect. I know I have wondered like "did I forget something" but God knows what we mean to say even if we mess it up or even if we forget to say it. So KEEP AT IT.

I have had many of the same doubt and fears that you have!! All I know if that God DOES hear our prayers. Has long as you are humble and honest he will hear your prayer. When you pray ask him to help you with this doubt you are having.
