How do I find my way when God has left me to wander, with no guide, no clear path to follow?

There are paths all around you. There are guides for you to seek out. There are books and wise people. What way do you want to find? One doesn't have to go wandering to find one's way, but should learn to go inside one's self, to be still and listen. This is the quickest way to find your path. Some say "when the student is ready, the teacher will appear". This has happened to me.

God has not left you to wander with no guide and no clear path to follow. You just don't want the guide He has provided, neither do you want to get on the narrow path that leads to eternal life. God will walk with you if you ask Him and acknowledge your need for Him.

Consider that God may not have left you at all, but that you may have wandered from God.
Shepherds don't stray from the sheep.
Speak to God in your heart and from your heart. God will hear you, and begin to guide you.
Don't worry about the path not being clear. Sometimes that's what it's all about.
Reach out, and God will reach out to you.

GOd hasn't left you to wander. He gave you the Bible. Follow it. If you are lost, consider this-- did you stop following and get left behind alone in the wilderness while you were stopped to look at something else you think you wanted?

I am afraid you are quite mistaken. God cannot lie, If you are a Christian, He has promised to never leave or forsake you. However, if you have chosen to walk away from Him then He cannot stop you that is your decision to make.
What evidence do you have that he has left you, I guess you must be going through hard times. I am always amazed that people are so quick to blame God for breaking promises and yet the devil nor evil men never get blamed.

Whatever bad experiences you have had make it a matter of prayer and believe. There are people around who would be happy to help someone who genuinely needs it.
We can't easily manage in the wilderness on our own, it is good to be with others who believe in God and his son Jesus.
After all the Gospel is a message of salvation for any who will trust God and do his will.

Poor you. No guide or path, god left you all alone. Jesus, man, are you a man or are you a little boy? Why do you need some imaginary father figure to hold your hand?

You have a few good answers. Look for relief of your conscience in the Bible. You just haven't found your way yet. Jehovah God tells you to take his hand and he will never let you go.
In the Bible book of James, chapter 4 verse 8 says "draw close to God and He will draw close to you".
Never forget that He will always be there for you. BUT, if you are not there for him that is not his fault. He is the one and only true God whose name is Jehovah (Exodus 6:3).
Remember, there many Gods out there but none equal to Jehovah.
If you have a problem understanding the Bible and the things you have to do in order to commit yourself to God please contact me and I will help you.

Try reading St John of the Cross, Ascent of Mt Carmel.

God left you a guide -- The Bible. And He gave you free will to come to Him not to wander aimlessly.
