Many "believers" feel His presence.. I NEVER seem to feel it.. No matter how many times I have prayed, no matter how many hardships I go through..
Sure, my life is "proof" of God, right?
I'm sorry, I try to believe, but I'm left with complete nothing.
Every day I wake up to nothingness.. I'm not a bad person - I have thought I saw my own sign from God, only to be left in the DIRT.
Where is God when I cry? The bible says He'll always be there to comfort you - what abou those who have NEVER ever heard of God?
I'm sick of this sick cycle - I have faith, yet it's not good enough. How can I be happy - searching for love from a God that ignores me?
My life hasn't been easy, it hasn't been worse than most.. But it hurts a lot to have faith, pray, and think you get an answer - false hope - God ignores me. HE doesn't care.

It is written in Romans:
"Now faith comes from hearing, and hearing by the word of Christ"
Romans 10:17
If you want to hear from God, my suggestion is to go to the place He is speaking, and He is always speaking through His Son, the Lord Jesus Christ.
He speaks through His Word, the Bible, especially I would recommend that you read the Gospel of John.
Also I recommend you find a Church or fellowship where the Bible is believed and proclaimed.
May I recommend also the following story?........

The words you employ are packed with connotations and symbolism that each and all and sundry do no longer conform to. in case you think of deeply, that's obvious that there is a inventive stress interior the Universe - that stress has been interpretted in lots of diverse approaches, although that's that which makes this existence pass, that which makes us breath and the grass improve. that would not recommend that that's a sensient something that has created individuals to play out that's divine suggestions. The question, in my concepts, is far less "is there a inventive stress" and lots extra "what's the character of the inventive stress" - in simple terms like we question and attractiveness what's in the back of curtain extensive form 3. we are inquisitive creatures and we've a tendency to ask till we are chuffed. There in lies the glitch. there isn't any thank you to understand the Unknowable till that's in simple terms too late - and so we ask your self and picture and toy with thought of who we are and what we are doing right here. looks completely organic to me. I truly have heard a style of theories on God that are lots extra achievable than any that are positioned forth interior the at present ordinary "prepared religions" and that i nevertheless come across new and thrilling suggestions and interpretations. that's a pleasing issue - hence each and all of the activity. Peace!

God has always been with you...he's not ignoring you. how can you feel God when you just feel "your own sign from God" the sign must be from God to you..do you expect Him to do what you want Him to do for you? it's like saying to your boss to clean up your own mess. always, remember that to be able to see His sign you must trust Him. why do you feel empty? is it bec you think God didn't answer your prayers? have you ever thought that God didn't answer you bec He felt you deserve much more than you are asking...and perhaps He's given you the "sign" or the answer but you refuse to see it bec it's not the one you are expecting...
you may think i seem not to understand bec im not in the stuation you're in.. you're wrong. i've been in your situation. yes, it was a hellish feeling but when i submitted my whole being to God... everything changed...remember God answers our prayers in His own chosen time... the time when He knows that you are ready...and remember..the more closer you are to God the all the more the enemy will provoke you with evil and bad thoughts...

God does exist and He does love you... God doesn't always work in the obvious... and sometimes we have to learn character (this doesn't mean that you are a bad person, but that God is further developing your character.)
Faith as small as a mustard seed is all you need don't let anyone tell you your faith isn't good enough cause that is not ture...
Our Job is to worship God and then we see His love...
He does care, I hope you have been this frank with God.

If god is omnipresent and omnipotent, one might think that she would not be afraid to show her face. Christians don't seem to notice, and believe all the more. Queer, isn't it.

God ignores everyone and the answer though obvious is always overlooked by the people who so want to believe in God. God doesn't exist and I don't mean that to sound hurtful the hurtful part is hoping where there is no hope.

Bible is fictitious stories about a fictitious god written by fictitious writers. It's not that he doesn't care, rather he doesn't exist. He was made up by holy men (some not-so-holy), many meant well, but obviously they were all wrong.

it seems you're finally realizing that ''god'', as we think of him, is a myth. there is no god who is active in our daily lives. people need some reason to live, people need to feel their not alone. its sad that we must continue to delude ourselves and supress our own intelligence by accepting erronious suppositions, but that's life. maybe one day, we'll all be free.
