You know the story of prodigal son? 

The son left his father and his home and demanded his inheritance from his father... he goes away into foreign country and squanders his wealth in reckless living and just does what he wants... and then he is left alone and finds himself eating food for pigs and then he comes to senses and goes back to his father... the father there is waiting for the day the son comes... and when he sees his son in the distance coming he runs toward him... he threw his arms around him and kissed him. The son says: "Father, I have sinned against heaven and against you, I am no longer worthy to be called your son. Make me a servant."

His father didnt even adress it... he said: "Give him the best robe. Give him the ring. Bring a fatted calf and kill it."

You can do nothing that make God love you less or more... your worth has nothing to do with your actions, God´s love for you has nothing to do with your actions.... He loves you because He is love, because you are His son or daughter. Do you understand? 


Just come to God in prayer... from your heart... talk to him... 

forget about going to church, doing good deeds, praying ... as a religion thing... as something u r supposed to do... as some kind of method. 

It is a relationship. It is faith through love. U understand?

Just fall in love with Jesus... every other thing comes in a right place. You know?

Ask God in prayer and trust him... you can maybe start with gospel of John, and then the other two lists written by apostle John. I think they can be a good start.

If you have time, and want to, give a chance to listen to these messages, I found very worthwile:

My friend,

There are times in life when a person’s inner world grows quiet, and things that once felt meaningful begin to fade. It can feel like being lost… but in reality, it is often the beginning of a deeper search.

You were once someone who believed sincerely, who prayed, who cared deeply about being truthful. That says something important about your heart. What you’re experiencing now doesn’t mean your heart is broken—it may simply mean that you’re carrying something heavy.

Please don’t forget this:
“Your Lord is never forgetful.” (Qur’an, 19:64)
Even if you forget Him, He does not forget you.

And also:
“He is closer to you than your jugular vein.” (Qur’an, 50:16)

So what you are searching for is not far away… it may be closer than you think—perhaps quietly waiting within you.

Sometimes, when life gets harder, people begin to ask “why?”—and when they can’t find answers, they drift away. But hardship is not always a sign of abandonment. Often, it is a deeper kind of calling. Because the most meaningful returns don’t begin in comfort—they begin in moments of struggle.

If there is still a voice inside you saying, “I want to come back,” then that is something very precious. It means the door is still open. And know this: divine mercy is endless. No matter how far someone feels they have gone, the way back always exists.

Maybe you don’t need to take big steps right now.
Maybe it’s enough to begin with a simple, honest sentence:

“If You are there… I want to come back. But I’m struggling. Please help me.”

That’s all.

Because a true return doesn’t start with perfection—it starts with sincerity.

Remember: the darkest moments are often the closest to the dawn.
And if your heart is still searching, it means the path is still calling you.

thankyou , I truly want to be sincere again 

the only way I defend myself when being attacked is by lying , I want to fix that too , I’m scared of losing track again but I’ll try my best to have a slow and steady start

if you really want to be religious again...

you can start with giving a little time to prayers everday and if you are getting hard time , your faith might help to cope with it with ease.

its amazing that you can turn back to go anytime. there is no wrong or right time for them.
