Thank you Lizzy and others who have answered with serious answers. DO NOT state your opinions about my religion, go somewhere else with all that. I want serious answers only.

Be encouraged and stead fast in prayer during times like this. Sometimes when we feel like God has left us he has simply stepped back to see if you can maintain his will without being carried. This only means God is about to take you higher... keep fighting the good fight in faith...
Heb 13:5-6
5Let your conversation be without covetousness; and be content with such things as ye have: for he hath said, I will never leave thee, nor forsake thee.

If you are having doubts, and you are already saved yes, it is the devil. Have you done anything you need to repent for? God will never abandon us no matter what we do. When we sin, it drives a wedge back between us and God and we can't perceive His presence like we should.
Matthew 28:20 reads in part, (Jesus speaking) "...and lo, I am with you always, even to the end of the age."

God would never abandon anyone that has not turned away. God lets you take baby steps on your own, just like a parent watches over a young child with pride, as they take thier first few steps on thier own.
Sometimes depression is my greatest enemy, and it can make you feel like you are unworthy of recieving anything. Then of course there is external pressure. -- different religious groups pointing fingers, saying you are a sinner because you are not within thier walls. - If parents know how to give good gifts to thier children, The Father who is in heaven, and see's you in secret, knows what you need, and gives better gifts than these.

Yes, it is that devil doing what he does best.
Fear not for I am with you always, even to the end of the world.
Behold! I am with you and will keep you in all places, wherever you go.
Psalm 23 - The Lord is my Shepherd, I shall not want. Read the whole chapter of your Bible.
Many other Psalms will help you. Keep reading.

I am there with you. But I also know that I abandoned Him first! You might just be feeling suppressed guilt that is finally hitting the surface. It will be ok, just give Him time to work IN you. Pray, and keep the faith. Maybe Check Romans 8?

Yes and Yes try:
Psalm 23
2 Corinthians 4
Phillippians 1:6.
However God does not abandon people, people abandon Him. He's right where you left Him.

Yes, that's the devil who's now putting that into your mind! Eight now, I can only think of, "I will never leave you, nor forsake you" Deut. 31:6
Aslo take a look thru Psalms-you'll find wonderful stuff there!
peace to you=)

no DEVIL is putting thoughts in your head
YOU can determine and choose your thoughts at any given moment. God could never abondoned something he/she is a PART of and you, are a PART of God ..
you are a flame.. and the sun is god
and individual, unique beautiful flame
and God could never abandon you, for you are a part of the light and the joy that IS God. How could you not shine, when you are completely ONE with God.
there is no SATAN speaking to you, only the dispair and fear of your heart.
reach deep. find your inner truth.
God is NEVER apart from you
NEVER!

God never abandons anyone, except those who have commited grave sins. Difficluties in life are either tests or to wash away sins.
