Just keep your eyes on Jesus. As was already said, our relationship with Christ should not be based on feelings, for feelings will often lead us astray. Satan uses our feelings against us, so the thing that we must do when he bombards our minds with feelings of hopelessness, guilt, or emptiness, is to keep our eyes ever on the prize and just trust God to do what He says He will do, which is save you if you come to Him in faith. And as for your relationshup not being as it should be, it will never be as it should be until you have reached perfection. As long as sin is still in your life, you can always be closer to God, for sin separates us from Him. But don't be discouraged, for your walk with God is a process that takes time, and God sees past our imperfections to what is in the heart. You don't have to be perfect to go to heaven. As one writer once said, our faith in Christ is our title to heaven, while our walk with Him makes us fit for heaven.
So just keep your eyes on Jesus, and trust in His word.
God bless!

I think that salvation is not guaranteed in this life, therefore, we must work at it through God's grace. I think that our "spiritual" senses aren't attuned or accustomed to the greatness of God that resides within us, therefore, if we sometimes don't feel God's presence, it is because it is too great for us to understand. Nevertheless, God is always with the Person who believes. God bless.

o_O Maybe the emptiness is a good thing? 1. Buddha advocated this. 2. I think i've heard people say it is the "natural state of life" 3. The emptynss could be you emptying yourself so that you might be filled with the Lord :P

Our relationship with Christ is not determined by feelings,which come and go,but by commitment whther we feel up or down.
