O LORD God of hosts, hear my prayer;I feel like I need to say something like this every time I pray. There's a line in a song I hear on the radio, "sometimes my prayers feel like they're bouncing off the sky." That sums up how my prayers feel pretty much all the time.
Give ear, O God of Jacob! Selah
Intellectually, I know God hears them. I know He responds, in one way or the other. It just seems like 99% of the time, the answer is "wait," which tends to be delivered via dead silence. Of the remainder, 0.9% is "no," which doesn't leave much "yes" left. I don't know if it's that I'm asking for the wrong things, or there's something in my life that's keeping me out of sync with Him, but it has become quite discouraging.
