I sometimes for the same. But just remember, God is loving and understands our problems. Pray that your problems will go away, someday they will. It has happened to me. I still do things that are against God and I know I shouldn't. It's hard, but you can do it. ❤️

I’m in the same spot right now. I had a good relationship with God throughout the summer and now it’s just ruined because of me. Idk if you Christian or not, but I’m Christianity we believe that we (followers of God) can’t overcome sin by ourselves. We can’t win, but Jesus can. All things are possible with God. Everything. All Christians just have to do is believe in Christ and trust him that he will set us free. It’s all very beautiful, I just wish I was a better Christian.

This is what I dont understand. We cant win by ourselves, but with Jesus we can, but what should we do when we are suffering temptation, just hold on and try not to sin? Thanks for the reply, God bless you

@Hoping for the best “Watch and pray so that you will not fall into temptation. The spirit is willing, but the flesh is weak.” Matthew 26:41 So basically when you are feeling tempted get into the presence of God, or just welcome God into your room. Or you can open your Bible and read, listen to worship music. And remember to pray pray pray! I really recommend fasting because it really makes your spirit stronger. It’s not easy, especially in the moment.

@Hoping for the best And please don’t be too hard on yourself if you fall. We are not perfect and never will be. God doesn’t expect perfection from us. What matters if you try your best.

I think the fact that you are feeling like you will never measure up demonstrates that you care about honoring God. OCD attacks the things we care about - I understand this to a degree because I struggle with scrupulosity. Christianity is different because there’s no “+” for salvation - it’s just Jesus....admitting you’re a sinner and that He is Lord and that without Him you are hopeless. Good works are fruit that you bear...a demonstration of Christ’s work in you and the Holy Spirit working in you and through you. But, don’t listen to Satan and the OCD...you can’t ever earn your salvation and it’s evident that you desire to serve God. He knows your heart and if you’ve accepted Him as your Savior and Lord, you’re reconciled with the Father because of the death of Jesus on the cross. Don’t let OCD lie to you.

Is anyone here Christian?
If you suffer from Christian OCD and feel Jesus hates you and you’re going to hell every few seconds but I keep fighting it because when I pray it says Lucifer and I refuse to pray to him. If I do Jesus will send me to hell. I’m terrified. When does it end. Some Christian’s are so peaceful, I want that.. why.. I feel cursed forever. I have faith in others journey… not mine. I’m stuck like this forever. My mind will never be the same.

I’m afraid that I don’t believe in God anymore.
I need some help. I keep having thoughts that I don’t believe in God anymore or that I don’t want to believe in God. I have always believed but I just recently started following him more closely. I did ask for Jesus to come into my heart. But now I’m scared that I have lost my salvation. It’s hard to read and pray and I keep getting thoughts that I don’t believe what I reading or that God won’t forgive the sins that I have done. I have been having panic attacks and I’m afraid I’m going to go to hell or I’m afraid that it’s true and I don’t believe in God. I’m also afraid that since God does know my heart what if it truly isn’t for him. I just need some help I’m afraid I’m never going to get back to normal.

terrified
I feel so hopeless right now. I don’t know what to do anymore. I’m so tired of living with this constant fear and guilt. I keep thinking that God is angry with me and that I’m being punished. I’m terrified that I’ve committed blasphemy—especially against the Holy Spirit—and that I’m going to hell. Yesterday, because of my OCD-driven curiosity, learning more about my faith—especially about the Trinity—has left me mentally exhausted and deeply confused, like I’m losing my grip on reality. The thought that God might already be punishing me only makes everything feel heavier. I’ve been breaking down since yesterday and struggling with intense anxiety. Even trying to pray scares me, because I feel like God is so mad at me. Deep down, I’m afraid I might be beyond forgiveness. I feel completely lost and terrified.
