"All Circuits are Busy"

Have you ever tried to call in to a radio station, trying desperately to win a contest? You have to time it just right. So, you dial all but the last number, then, at the PERFECT moment, dial the last digit. Only, instead of hearing the DJ on the other end of the line, you hear, "Beep! All circuits are busy. Please try your call again later." It's a crushing blow to the fragile hope of getting through and winning the prize.

Well...that's about how I feel right now. I seem to be praying and praying and praying, only to hear, "All circuits are busy." I know that God isn't just ignoring me, but I just haven't figured it all out yet. Am I praying for the wrong thing? Am I missing something? Did God already try to give me an answer, but I wasn't paying attention?

Please tell me that I am not the only one that feels this way. How do you know when to just 'let it go?' I don't want to give up and cut God short. I know that He has plans for me, I just wish I could see them a little more clearly.
