Prayer in Time of Aridity

to I Have Loved You

Heavenly Father, I am enmeshed in a time of spiritual aridity. You seem so far removed from me, and I cannot even pray. I am deprived of all sensible consolations which facilitate prayer and the practice of the virtues. Yet I want to pray and I want to remain close to You.
Let me realize the truth of the well-known axiom: when we think God is furthest away from us, that is when He is closest to us.
Make me increase my efforts at prayer even if I feel they are useless.
Keep me from being discouraged and help me remain united with You.
Grant that I may regain my love for prayer and grow in my relationship with You, your Son Jesus, and the Holy Spirit. Amen.
