The pressure is on. Your birthday is coming up, and everyone starts to ask what you want to do for your birthday. At first, it was fun, but now the pressure is getting intense. The big day is just weeks away, and you've run out of ideas. In fact, not only have you run out of ideas, but you're starting to wonder if people are going to do something off the list you provided them or if they're going to plan their own thing. The excitement you once felt transitioned to pressure, and now even that has turned into a slight tinge of regret. You're not even sure if you want to share what's really on your heart. 

Sometimes, prayer can feel like it takes a similar path. We get excited when we start to talk with God. We look forward to it, but then things don't work out exactly how we want them to, and we start to get a little nervous like maybe we're not praying "right." Then, we start to give up a little along the way. 

In our moments of doubt and frustration, what can you do to remind yourself God hears you?
