how can i explain this... i am a catholic christian and my brother just persuaded me to convert into a born-again christian last year. i used to have a very beautiful relatonship with God... and I used to pray everyday before I graduated from High School.
uneventually some things happened, personal things concerning a very very religious close friend of mine... and other events in my life that made me lose hope in both myself and in God.
i don't go to mass lately. i refuse to pray. and i seem to blame God for this pain and confusion i am going through. i blame Him for i am going nowhere in my life... and i feel as if He isn't always there for me.
i passed by your journal and i saw that you had a great love for God. maybe you could enlighten me with your experiences and your beliefs in how God can help people despite how they treat him because at this point, I think I have turned completely into an agnostic person.
yeah. i know there is a God... be He seems to have lost faith in me. He seems to have abandoned me because of things i have done wrong. (long story) Now, I feel as if... He's never there.
I have lost faith before because I felt the exact same way as you did. The truth is it seems like he has abandoned you, but in reality you have abandoned him.
It's kind of like he's knocking at your door to come in but it's locked and you won't get up and answer it. But you keep wanting him to come in. You tell him it's up to you to get in that door, but he has no key.
yea, it does make sense. and it made me feel sad. i told my parents about it... (i am close to my parents and they are faithful catholics) and they felt sad about it too, to the point that mom starts sending me hope messages on the internet.

I feel I can better help you if I knew more information about how you lost this faith.
One question is. Are you losing faith on whether you know there's a God or not?
