You are facing to much reality. You should go to a more charismatic church because they know how to keep you distracted from reality and can probably wash the doubts from your brain better.
Of course, read the Bible more, so you can have a lot of positive things to memorize - oh, if some of the Bible is not positive, then you just aren't reading it properly - find a REAL Chrnistian and I'm sure they will tell you the proper way to interpret the scriptures.
You obviously do not have enough Jesus in you. O ye of little faith! Knowing God, He would probably tell you to make a list of all your dreams, make another list of steps to achieving those dreams - then do whatever first steps you can until you have accomplishment! Either that, or pray harder (and, of course with more faith) and just watch those miracles start coming!
If that doesn't work, then something's wrong with you, because Christianity is the only right way. Even if it doesn't work - even if they finally prove conclusively (oh, wait, that's right - they already have) that Jesus Christ never even existed - it doesn't matter, because Jesus (real or not) is the only way.
Sounds like God is only your crutch, when HE NEEDS TO BE YOUR STRETCHER! Think about Hell - THAT should motivate you to more faith.

whether there's a author God there is not any reason to have faith that he could choose or choose our worship or could even care if we renowned his existence. there is not any reason to have faith he could decide. historical human beings observed human beings die from lightning, floods, tornadoes, and so on., and assumed this replaced into God judging. We now comprehend the technological know-how in the back of those issues. you additionally can evaluate that basically a million/3 of the international is Christian, and it extremely is not sparkling how a lot of those *extremely* have faith. in case you have grown up in a community it extremely is commonly Christian, it extremely is not undemanding to realize that the the remainder of the international is in comparison to that. additionally, do you already know that there are over one billion Muslims interior the international. How can one billion human beings be incorrect? yet they're basically a pair of million/6 of the international, yet they're very particular of their ideals. in case you think of that they are able to be incorrect, then why could Christianity be top? each and every faith can't be top, even with the shown fact that it extremely is obtainable for each faith to be incorrect.

Pray the promises, pray the Word, you cannot go wrong when you agree with God.
Surrender to God and let Him know exactly how you feel, then begin to speak what the Bibles says about your situation.
A good place to start,
Jeremiah 29
11 For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, saith the LORD, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you an expected end.
12 Then shall ye call upon me, and ye shall go and pray unto me, and I will hearken unto you.
13 And ye shall seek me, and find me, when ye shall search for me with all your heart.
14 And I will be found of you, saith the LORD: and I will turn away your captivity, and I will gather you from all the nations, and from all the places whither I have driven you, saith the LORD; and I will bring you again into the place whence I caused you to be carried away captive.(KJV)
Begin to say " Lord I CHOOSE to TRUST You." say it often! Use the Word of God to build your faith.
Proverbs 3
5 Trust in the LORD with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding.
6 In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths.(KJV)

There is no magic formula to having more faith.It is totally up to you.Not all dreams can be fulfilled .And it depends on what you actually want and for what reason.Start by loving every human being God has ever created .If you can do that with no exceptions i guarantee, you will be overflowing with faith and God will pour out his unfathomable mercy upon you.

It's a gradual process. Most of us are still learning. If you learn to have faith in the smaller things first, the larger things will come easily.
But take it to God. He understands that we have trouble trusting sometimes. Ask Him to help you.
Right now, I'm facing a VERY uncertain future...and I'm having to learn to trust, too. I'll pray for you. And maybe someone else can advise you better than I can.

You will just to have to sit and wait upon God. You will need a Bible at hand so that He can speak to you. Do not think about your problem. Think about God and His goodness! Be thankful that you still have so many blessings: health, family, job, money, car, friends, relatives, house, etc. If you are serious about getting satisfaction, try and share the Gospel with unbeliever.

Throw you hands up and give it to the Lord. Any battles you have are the Lord's. When we try to navigate for ourself for ourself, that's when we get into trouble. Right heart, mind, motive. Contrite spirit. Honest request for guidance/help. Be prepared for the response. Are you willing to do what he asks? That therein lies a lot of our problems. We ask but we do not want to do if it is something we are not ready for. You are never ready for what he asks. He just wants to know you are willing.

Try to focus first on what is your main goal. The Lord is always beside us and does His part in each and every action we make. We may not notice it right now, but we will definitely feel its effect in the future. Start accomplishing short term goals as they may aid you in reaching the long ones. Have faith and good luck!

It can be hard . . . read God's Word and spend time in prayer. Remember that He created you, He loves you, and He has a special plan for you. Sometimes He allows hard things to drive us closer to Him. Faith comes by God's Word. Spend lots of time getting to know Him better through His Word.
