Have you ever prayed and heard nothing back?  It’s easy to feel like the heavens are silent and your prayers are going unheard. But what if God’s silence isn’t a rejection, but an invitation to a deeper kind of trust? 

In today’s devotional, we explore why unanswered prayer can feel like "unanswered love" and how the Bible offers a different story: God’s silence is often preparation, not rejection. We’ll look at:

- Why the Holy Spirit prays for you when you don’t have the words.
- How waiting is an act of courage, not weakness.
- The powerful lesson of Lazarus: Why a "not yet" might be a "something greater".
