Sunday Homilies with Father Martin

What to Do When You Feel Stuck in Prayer


Listen Later

Have you ever felt like your prayers aren’t working — like God’s not listening, or you’re somehow doing it wrong? In this episode, Fr. Martin Vu reflects on those moments when prayer feels dry, discouraging, or stuck — and how Scripture can guide us through them.

Drawing from the parable of the persistent widow and the story of Moses supported by Aaron and Hur, Fr. Martin shares three ways to get “unstuck” in prayer:

 1️⃣ Pray Persistently — Don’t give up, even when you don’t see results.
2️⃣ Pray Together — Find strength and encouragement in community prayer.
3️⃣ Pray Expectantly — Trust that God hears and answers in His own time and way.

If you’ve ever wrestled with doubt, dryness, or discouragement in prayer, this message will lift your spirit and renew your hope.

🙏 Tune in, be encouraged, and discover how to keep your heart open to God — even when prayer feels hard.
