Feel Like Your Prayers Don't Matter?

Main message: God sees, knows, and hears his people in the midst of pain and confusion; even when prayers feel unanswered or grief is inarticulate, God cares and is present.

Key points:

• God is not surprised by our heartbreak; he notices and cares.
• Even when prayers feel like they're "bouncing off the ceiling," God hears them.
• God hears the cries of the night and the grief we can't put into words.
• He knows when we've been betrayed, when bills are overwhelming, and when we feel alone.
• The same comfort God gave people in Scripture is offered to us today.
