Short on Faith

Lately I have no idea what to do. I've had faith problems ever since I can remember, but lately things have gotten rather bad. And I mean BAD.

My faith is so small...and it's really bugging me. I mean, originally I'd feel short on faith and really worry about it--but that was good. It meant I still believed. But now when I'm really not worrying...it really bugs me. And I know you can say I just went against what I said, but no, I didn't. It's like the only thing left telling me to worry is the Holy Spirit. It's like that's all that's left trying to stop me.

I keep having these thoughts like about not being a Christian anymore...I feel like crying, but it doesn't happen. It's like I don't care anymore, but deep down I know it's wrong.

I need help so much...I'm afraid I'm gonna lose faith...I feel so far from God. I can hardly talk to Him. If it's not too much to ask, could you please keep me in your prayers?

I know this is said a lot, but don't base your faith on your feelings. Base it on what the Word of God says about your salvation, and about who you are in Christ. Remember, Satan knows our weak points, and where he can frustrate us. But as Christians, we have the armor of God and can stand against him. That can be hard to do (believe me, I know from experience), but we need to ignore Satan's lies and the garbage that he's telling us, because we know that God's Word tells us that if we've accepted Christ, we are children of God. And even if we do stumble and start to fall into Satan's lies, God's grace is sufficient enough to forgive us and get us back into the right mindset.

Anyway, if your situation is the way it sounds, it's something I can probably relate to. I'm lifting you up to the Father. And not to steal Wingzero's thunder, but likewise, if you need to, feel free to PM me.
