When prayer feels impossible

Options for when words, silence, or the idea of God are all too much.

Smaller than words

Light a candle. Sit down. Breathe. Let that be the whole prayer.

You can also ask someone else to pray while you cannot. Catholics call this the communion of saints: the prayer of the Church continues even when yours has stopped.
