anytime and almost all the time whenever i talk with Jesus or think about him and tell him that the things he has done for me I feel that i can't repay him with anything and i feel sad and i get tears in my eyes because I love him so much and sometimes i tell him sorry that i can't repay for helping me.

Personally I think that's great, That you love Jesus and appreciate what he has done for you, but you don't have to feel like you repay him...All God asks is to spread your faith and share his love with open arms. I've felt like you have before but God gave his gift of love and he is right there with you when you cry. God Bless you!

This is due to your feelings of separation. When we surrender our lives to God, we begin to realize that we do not want to be separated from Him. Your humble attitude and willing submission is proper. When we realize that we are the servant, we automatically feel some anxiety, and are always thinking, "How can I serve you". Sometimes, we realize that we cannot be grateful enough, cannot do enough.
You are worthy of all respects, because you desire to serve God, and because you display such a humble attitude. I am certain that you will not be separated from Him very long. In the vedas, it is explained that any spiritual progress we make is permanent. If you take one step towards God, He takes three steps towards you. Even if you fall down sometimes, you always begin again where you left off. This is the absolute nature of spirituality. In the material world, if we begin a process, and then stop for some reason, we have to start again from the beginning. In our relationship with God, we can make one small step, and it is permanent. Thus, we should fear nothing.

It's the same feeling that Mary the prostitute felt when God forgave her sins in front of so many people as she poured alabaster on Jesus's head and washed His feet with her tears and wiped them with her hair. It is also the same feeling that every sincerely repenting Christian feels once they have received the fullness of God's forgiveness.
Later on, however, you should be compelled to rejoice for the fact that even though God knows we CANNOT in any way repay Him for what He has done for us, He still chose to do so! I personally cannot help but have tears of joy in my eyes when I think about Him. I just rejoice!
Do not dwell upon the thought that you cannot repay Him for helping you. It may mean that you still feel guilty of your sins. Guilt is not from God and is therefore not right to be felt by a Christian who has already been saved.

For starters, im an atheist. and let me just say...god talks to everyone, you're only crazy if you talk back.
but i digress, speaking from your doctrine. the best way to 'repay' jesus for dying for your sins... is to live a clean wholesome Christian life. but really, this is something any man of any greed can embrace..do not steal, do not lie, do not kill....
lead a good happy life and help people around you. There is no God and there is no Jesus, the least you can do is help those around you before you go though.

Those tears are called the Tears of Grace. There are cases of people spontaneously bursting into tears for as long as 2 years. It will pass sooner or later.
But please understand this. You NEVER have to apologize that you can't repay the debt. If you could, it would void out the amazing grace of God! Even trying to earn it is practically blasphemous - it's like saying you didn't really need Jesus in the first place. If you truly have accepted His gift of forgiveness and salvation, it's time to begin doing His will for you. That in itself will make Him happy.

That's resistance. You want it, you won't let yourself have it.
Time to do three things:
1) confess
2) make reparations, personally if possible, indirectly if necessary
3) forgive, not just others, but yourself
Then be happy! If you aren't, then you didn't do it correctly. When next you cry over such a talk, look closely at what you fear. That fear is what you have undone, and why you can't let go and feel God's love.
I'm not a Christian, but have a personal relationship with God without religion.
Happiness is your natural state. He loves you regardless. You just have to get to a point where you can stop hiding long enough to look him in the face.

He loves you completely and doesn't want you to feel guilty. No you can't repay Him. But you can give Him what He wants and you have: Your love. I believe all of us Christians feel like we drove those nails into His feet and hands. And we did whenever we have sinned. But, He will say in Heaven when asked about those scars that He was wounded in the house of His friends. Your feelings are perfectly normal. Just try to remember that He wants you to be glad and rejoice because of what He has done for you. He just wants you to love Him. Peace.

You are so precious, but realize--no-one will ever be able to repay Jesus for what he has done for us. He doesn't want you to be sad though. Rejoice in the Lord and be thankful, for he has done great things. And remember, to just always praise HIM, and exult his Holy name.
May God Bless You, Today and Always.

first of all you are probably helping your self, and creating your own good in your life.
the real Jesus doesn't monitor 7 billion peoples thoughts, so he personally doesn't hear you. so don't feel sad?? just thanking your self for creating the good in your life
i thought your relationship was with god not Jesus. send your messages to god, she may not answerer you directly but her angels , and workers will, be open and receptive and meditate.
meditation is listening to the Devinne, and to your own soul.so don't say i can get my answers from only one person, be open to get your answers from --every were

You can't repay him and you don't need to. Just accept the gift and be happy. Maybe you are one of those people who has trouble receiving a gift without strings. Work on it. Learn to just receive a gift and be happy to have it. Says thanks, I love you too. Then go on to have a nice day.
