Stop depicting God as an old grumpy asshole who has refused all prayer so now we need to drop what we are doing and beg?

Nah.

Our Loving God has never forsaken us and these times are not a punishment from Him but rather a consequence of Free will and the willful blocking of this awareness by buying into bullshit narratives like the holy roller narrative that God wants us to beg for forgiveness for thousands of years first and maybe just maybe He will be in a good mood and fix shit we started.

Thanks bible beaters, but no thanks.
