Hello🤗

Well I really struggle with my faith and with my mental health and I many times pleased God to take me home, bc im too scared.. and I really don't know what to do or how to fix it... I got a miracles that helped me starting believe in God and I also got really gifted by Him... but now I just don't feel like talking to Him, bc im so mad and it's just so hard.... I hardly pray or read my bible.... bc it's so painful... every time I read my bible, I just see all the "bad" people and all the warning and I feel so guilty that IM the BAD people and I don't know how to change it... i tried to repent many times but it didn't help... 🙈

I also talked about it many times with my Pastor (he's for me more than that well) but he also really doesn't know... Last time he just said me that HE needs to pray more for me... 🥺🙈

So if you have anything that helped you with that and what could you recommend, I would be grateful🥺🤗🤍

@Parllie Sometimes we can be disappointed with religion and not believe it works, that God accepts us. Sometimes we ourselves do things that seem terrible to us from a moral and religious perspective. But God sees your heart and your journey. He sees your struggle and knows how you feel. He will definitely not abandon you, and perhaps the current trials are difficult; this is part of your personal journey. Don't beat yourself up for not being able to read the Bible right now. Be yourself and give yourself time to understand. Sometimes we are weak, but if we recognize this, it's a step forward. There's no need to rush yourself; many great preachers have gone through this. Hold on and be yourself!

@Parllie I'm so sorry you're feeling this way, but I'm so glad you're reaching out for help!

You are definitely not alone. We've all struggled and messed up so many times in our faith journeys. I've personally dealt with with guilt and self-doubt too. The important part is that you come back to Him, because no matter what, He loves you SO MUCH more than you could ever imagine!! His grace is so much bigger than anything else!!

Also, it's good that you recognize your struggles and have the desire to repent and pray; this shows that you're still seeking Him, and He just wants your heart! He wants a relationship with you because you're His masterpiece and He created you for a purpose! Also, He said to cast all of our anxieties on Him because He cares for us (so much so that He suffered on the cross to save us). His thoughts about you outnumber the grains of sand on the beach, and those thoughts are good!

Just keep going! Take small steps each day; even reading a verse/chapter a day slowly and thoroughly will help you get closer to Him. Keep praying, repenting, surrendering, seeking His peace, and He will make your paths straight/heal you as He promised!! Always remember how much He loves you and that you are absolutely strong enough to get through this. Please reach out if you ever want to talk! Sending you so much love, hugs, and prayers!! 💖
