Have you ever felt invisible — like your prayers were bouncing off the ceiling, and even God had gone quiet? As our daily prayer and devotional remind us, In those moments of deep loneliness or misunderstanding, it’s easy to believe that God has forgotten you. But Isaiah 58:9 offers a promise we can cling to: when we call, the Lord answers; when we cry for help, He says, “Here am I.” Rachel Wojo, host of Untangling Prayer, shares a personal story of feeling isolated after a painful workplace conflict. The tension left her feeling unseen and rejected, not only by her coworkers but even, for a time, by God. Yet when she brought her hurt and bitterness honestly before Him, everything changed. The situation didn’t resolve instantly, but God’s presence brought peace. His silence, she discovered, was not His absence. The Hebrew word for “answer” in this passage means to respond or pay attention. That means when you pray, God is not distracted or distant. You have His full attention. Even when you can’t hear His voice or sense His hand at work, He is near — fully aware of your pain, your prayers, and your needs. If you feel forgotten today, take comfort in this truth: God sees you. He hears you. And when you call, His loving response is always, “Here am I.” Today's Bible Reading:“Then you will call, and the Lord will answer; you will cry for help, and he will say: Here am I.” – Isaiah 58:9 Takeaway Truths God’s silence never means His absence. You are seen, known, and deeply loved by your Creator. When you call to Him, He answers with His presence and peace. Let’s Pray Heavenly Father, When I feel forgotten, unseen, or unheard, remind me of Your promise that when I call, You will answer. Thank You that Your silence is never indifference — it is often an invitation to draw closer to You. Help me to release bitterness, fear, and doubt, and to rest in the assurance that You are always near. When others overlook or misunderstand me, let me remember that You know me fully and love me completely. Thank You for being the God who sees, hears, and stays. You are faithful, even in the quiet. In Jesus’ name, Amen.
