Pray the Divine Mercy Chaplet and reflect on what to do when prayer feels dry and God seems silent during Lent.

In this episode of Divine Mercy: With Open Arms, we begin by praying the Divine Mercy Chaplet together and then reflect on a spiritual struggle many Christians experience — the feeling that God is distant.

During Lent, we often pray more, examine our hearts more deeply, and try to draw closer to God. But sometimes instead of feeling closer, prayer can feel quiet, distracted, or even empty.

Even the saints experienced this.

Drawing from the words of Saint Faustina Kowalska in her diary, we explore what she described as a “dark night” in the soul and what it means to remain faithful to God when His presence feels hidden.

We also look at how the desert experience of Jesus Christ in the wilderness helps us understand the purpose of spiritual dryness and how God can still be working in our hearts even when we cannot feel Him.

If Lent has felt quiet, difficult, or spiritually dry, this episode is a gentle reminder that silence does not mean absence.

God is still near.

And His mercy is still at work.
