Ya know I can't even believe that you did this one, with out putting something else out there. you have been preaching and I have been reading all your stuff, you've made people think about Him...consider what what gained...maybe a soul or more and the ones who replied already have this to say about you...haha..he wants to rebel they will not come back and read your add comments.
And if for real you feel this way....why?He does nothing..your awake...your on line, return He gave you his Life and open invitation to Heaven to be with Him.
Keep on doing what you've been doing...kick you flesh down Brother...the harvest is great but the labors are few...
You are loved for what you are doing. Remember the reward system, look at ALL I'VE DONE...that is your reward. It is what you were doing in secret that is rewarded openly....Stay focused.

I have felt this way many times in my walk in the Lord. Did you eat today do you have shelter do you have clothes to wear? I am sure the answer is yes so he provided your needs.
What are your motives or intentions for wanting things is it to glorify God and help others or do you want the blessings for yourself?
Also are you working your butt off for Him? Are you seeking the kingdom of God or are you promoting your own kingdom?
Jesus died on the cross for your sins
Life does not always get better when your prayers get answer like the old saying goes be careful of what you pray for you just might get it.
When I realized that God knew what was best for me and when I started keeping Him and seeking Him first that is when I started being content and fulfilled.
Life does not always go our way all the time but all things work together for good. There is a difference.
God is in control trust in him and Don't give up God is taking care of you. The Lord answers prayer in one of 3 ways yes, no or wait.

Really? What have you done for him? He died for YOU! What on earth could you ever do to compare to that? I really do not think you are Christian to begin with or else you would know that life is NOT about you! We are here to serve others! We are here to serve and praise the Lord! This is what we were created for! Jesus is my portion and with God all things are possible! No one but Jesus could have ever given what he did! He loves us!
I am sorry for being snappy in my first answer and I have edited it to reflect this! Please forgive me, I am a work in progress! I hope you find your portion is Jesus! I hope you find you are not a rebel but a follower of the Lord! Even though we are imperfect, all followers are still are sons and daughters of the Most High God!

You want something but don't get it. You will kill and covet, but you cannot have what you want. You quarrel and fight. You do not have, because you do not ask God. When you ask, you do not receive, because you ask with wrong motives, that you may spend what you get on your pleasures.
- James 4:2-3 NIV
I've got a whole lot more texts to quote from but, its a lot. but, i want to encourage you in this. Everything is done in the time of the Lord, there is a time for everything. Read Ecclesiastes 3 for more on that, and if you have time, read the entire book of Ecclesiastes and focus on it. The Lord will give you what you need. You just have to patiently wait for your gift. and always remember, if your gift doesn't come here, it will be waiting for you in Heaven. This is one major reason people leave the ministry of God. Impatience. i know this guy who waited 40 years, 40 years for his son to return to his home. He prayed, fasted, and gave everything to the Lord, and one day, the son returned. returned with happiness. and This man had patience, faith, and hope. he had patience in the Lord, he had faith in His Word. and hope that he would see his son again.
In the same form, just pray to the Lord your necessitates. And be clear to the Lord. Talk to him as if you were talking to any person you have known for years. and always remember, congregate into a church. Christian, Pentecost, and Baptist are the top three I recommend for someone who wants to seek a stronger relationship with Christ.
And If you want to know more of the Lord, feel free to e-mail me anytime, I will be sure to respond.
May the Lord bless you and your life.

Whether you believe in Jesus or not is entirely your business. But please try to "rebel" in a way which does not play into the negative stereotypes and homophobic beliefs of anti-gay Christians. If you do that, you just give them more ammunition to use against all your gay brothers and sisters.

You say you worked your butt off for him (doing what?), but have you asked him to come into your heart? Have you confessed your sins to the Lord and asked for forgiveness? Have you accepted him as your personal Savior?

First, know that I'm on your side. Check out www.uua.org. Second, don't blame Jesus. He was just a good guy who Paul turned into a miracle-working freak. Third, don't ever expect to get a payback for working for some one/thing that isn't there to appreciate it. Fourth, instant gratification is highly overrated.

funny really....I had the same problem. I lost my faith, I sat down, closed my eyes and searched if God was real......he said Jesus is not my name and you do not know my name. Seek and see if he is real. I am still searching for him. Found the God of Isreal. But my christian heart still needs to search for him, and have God say that Jesus is not know to him. Like when I asked if allah was God, he straight out denied his exstance, and said I do not know Allah. With Jesus he said my name is not Jesus, and you do not know my name.
this might sound crazy, but seek and you shall find. Best way to seek and only way is to close your eyes and pray for God to show you he lives.
