Faith not Feelings

Something that Ive heard alot recently is how a lot of people are saying they pray and its like praying to air; going to meetings and when others are saying " god was really there" or "god touched me" that they felt nothing themselves, feeling like god has abandoned them or even that there isnt a god and that they're not getting anywhere. Well I think all of us at some point or other have felt something similar.
I like to remember that god hears all of our prayers anyway, even if you think hes not listening. We should have faith that god hears us even when we think he wasnt listening or didnt respond. Prayers dont always have a response or get answered straight away, sometimes it takes time. God always answers, yes, no or wait, although these are sometimes not always the answers we want. Also about being touched by god, different people are affected in different ways, if most people are getting something out of it and you're not doesnt mean that will always be the case, there will be times when something will touch you and nobody else.
If you're feeling like your getting nowhere dont give up, keep going, else you might be giving up right before the time of your breakthrough. The problem is never with god but with you doing something which means you have gone away from him and not him from you. In the end just keep going at it.
