Whatever the “why,” we must pray our pain to God.
– Pray honestly.
It is better to come to God with sharp words than to remain distant from him, never voicing our doubts and disappointments. Better to rage at the Creator than to smolder in polite devotion. God did not smite the psalmist. Through the Psalms, he dares us to speak to him bluntly. - Tish Harrison Warren, Prayer in the Night
– Pray humbly.
The best answer — which does justice to what the Bible says — is that, strictly speaking, we are not being given the just penalty for our sins. Jesus took that. But can God bring bad things into our lives as ‘corrective discipline’ the way a parent brings painful consequences into a child's life to teach him or her to obey? The Bible says yes, he does. - Tim Keller, Walking With God Through Pain and Suffering
– Pray together.
– Pray expectantly.
