Yes understand, well its not wheather you struggle its when you struggle and even back slide do you go back to him. I mean even if you blame him for things that happening, I am in that place right now, I can't understand why I can't get love yet other jerk guys can get it so quick and then are gone .

Just don't worry so much, you have to put all your worries on him, yes thats even hard a lot of times, but thats what makes you struggle and don't look at others that look better than you as in they don't seem to do no wrongs. If you been saved then you will never lose your salvation no matter what others say and don't think because someone is better than you that he or she is even saved.

My pastor preached about how a deacon at the church he went to growing up , you expect someone that is a deacon to be saved , and someone like him that been there for 10 years. But one day he walked to the front of church and accepted God into his life, all that time he not even was saved. If you are saved then don't worry so much even if you do feel your faith going away some days, its going to happen , not all of us are supper strong thats why we are humans and if anyone tries to judge you because you not strong.

Then let them understand you are human and maybe you not in your point in your life where you are as strong as that person, and has nothing to do with you talking to God or reading the bible --BASIC INSTINTS BEFORE LEAVING EARTH --- now of course we should do that and live with a praying heart. But even if you do all those things and you still having trouble with your faith because its just not the right time yet, God is perfect in his timming but we as humans sometimes get jealous of others that seem to know him better than we do..

You will be ok , GOD BLESS WITH HUGS

Unfortunately, there is no one magic answer here, & you have to feel your way to what you are comfortable believing. I am not an expert by any means, but I am certain that each person has a unique & personal relationship with God. I would recommend spending some time discussing your views with your friends, family, or some one you can trust to be honest & helpful on your journey to faith. If you are interested just go into a church and tell whom ever you find there that you are interested in learning more & they will help you along. Good luck, and God Bless.

without knowing your religion , all anyone can tell you is that faith is a leap in the dark. So much has been learned about the Earth and the "heavens" since the major religions came into being. A lot of it seems to contradict but the most important aspect still stands up to scrutiny. The moral values that are taught by the various lessons.

You only need to beleive that being good and living right is the right thing to do. Know that you areen't perfect and just keep trying to improve. its all you can do. and its all thats axpected.

I think this fight you are having with your faith is a challenge of your will power. Think about Jesus and the incredible amount of will power that he had. Sometimes you have to force yourself to do the right things and in the end I'm sure will be very rewarding. It's ok to struggle with it. If you didn't you wouldn't be a normal person. It takes hard work and dedication. Don't feel like a failure if you don't suceed. Just keep on going and do the best that you can do.

Whenever you try to practice your faith in this world of today, it is going to be hard. There is SOOOOOOOO much temptation and distractions that it is crazy.

1 - DO NOT worry about what every body else thinks, just praise your God. Whatever happens in your life, with your life, will be between you and God so always remember that only u can answer for the things you do with God

2 - Do your best, keep God in your thoughts and pray often.

I'm thinking you are young, and your feelings of not getting anything right are very normal for young people. Don't be disappointed in yourself for being a normal human being. God knows that you will fail sometimes, but He will always be there for you. He forgives and He loves you anyway. Hold tight to your faith and focus on the messages that Jesus brought us: Treat others as you would want to be treated, and love your fellow human beings. These two rules cover it all. Keep them in your heart and on your mind, and if you make a mistake, tell God you're sorry and get up and keep going. It gets easier as you get older. God bless you honey, and don't give up.

Making the choice to have faith is the hardest part and it sounds like you've already done that much. Why does it seem you are having a bad time? What is there really to compare it to? Take your time and learn about your faith and choices in time. Dont rush things or use other people's success' or failures to rate your life. Move at your own pace.

God is something different to every religion, and
even every person. Stop trying to fit your definition of faith and God into someone else's. Look around you, start noticing the beauty in every day life, the miracle of birth, growth and death, the innocence of a baby, nature's wonders, hard work, helping others. Start noticing and appreciating and doing these things and your faith will grow without you even trying.

I think that we are put here to learn. We learn best when we struggle. I bet that you are learning a whole lot about yourself and what you really value and believe in. Don't sweat your mistakes, If you really are sorry for them God will forgive you. God is very flexible with us, always there to help us up and never holding us down. Learn the lessons presented to you and just always try to do whats right and you won't be very far away from him.

sweetheart you are doing just fine. what you're experiencing is called (satanic) attacks! please remember that the closer you are,or draw to god,the more you will find yourself harboring these type of feelings.if you read your bible the lord tells you they're called (principalities)! meaning Satan and his minion's. you know,like a bully and his gang. they are all battling like crazy to keep you from accepting Jesus as your lord and savior! you see we are at this time waiting on the rapture (when the lord will take his people up just the way they are)! like the movie,the 4400. these days are called,the bible days.because they are the last days before the end.if you are reading your bible you know this is the time to clean up your act.so to speak.and choose the road upon which you will walk until he calls you to sleep,in preparation for your heavenly rewards called eternal life with Jesus! honey,there truly is a hell.and don't let no one tell you otherwise.Jesus says to tell you (no weapon formed against you shall prosper).he has your back! and satan can't touch you if you just believe in him and never doubt.never.and to say this phrase several times throughout the day,until you know it by heart,and believe.the closer it gets to the time for the lord to come the harder he works to steal the soul's that belong to jesus.which is why he was kicked out of heaven! and just like some people here on earth,he still has not learned his lesson. peace be with you...
