I'm exactly that way too, sometimes! There are some days I just can't or don't want to do it! And, at those times I believe God knows our hearts and knows we don't want to do it. And, I also believe that the Holy Spirit, in some ways, intercedes for us. I don't know how to explain it very well. I just have the faith.
In December of 2001, I was told by my doctors that I have Multiple Sclerosis. I had no idea of anything about this disease. Was it it about being being a terminal illness? And was I going to die soon? I had no idea. Now, after having many years with MS I totally understand like the death part. I could die and MS might not be the reason. Let me rephrase that now, after having a mess for so many years oh, I see that the discomforts and problems I have with this disease like not having any balance, that may be the reason for any injury or death.
Do you guys think that the first thing I did was pray?
All I really remember about when I first found out I had MS was that Montel Williams had it and he seemed okay. Annette Funicello from The Mickey Mouse Club had it and she was in a wheelchair. I didn't know anything about it. Was I scared? You better believe it! However, I'm thinking the Holy Spirit helped me hide my fright and gave me the assurance and the comfort that God was with me and he's taking care of me any way he knows how I feel and even though my prayers or not coming out verbally they were not unheard by God. I think the bottom line is that God will always hear our prayers, verbally or non-verbally. So friends, continue to call out to him. If you can't? That's okay Just leave it in his hands.
Unspoken: In His Hands
Romans 8:26 ESV
Likewise the Spirit helps us in our weakness. For we do not know what to pray for as we ought, but the Spirit himself intercedes for us with groanings too deep for words.
