You’re Not Alone (https://smartguy.com/) Let’s be honest: sometimes God feels distant. You pray, and it’s quiet. You go to Mass, but it feels routine. You hear others talk about how close they feel to God—but you don’t. And maybe, deep down, you wonder: Is something wrong with me? If you’ve ever felt that way, you’re not alone. In fact, almost every saint, every priest, and every faithful Catholic has gone through the same thing—including Mother Teresa, who wrote that for years, she felt like God was silent. Feeling far from God doesn’t mean you’ve failed. It often means you’re growing. Think of it this way: in any relationship, there are highs and lows. There are moments of excitement, and moments of dryness. If you’ve ever had a close friend, you know you won’t always feel intense connection. But what makes a friendship real is sticking with it—even when it’s quiet.The same is true with God.
