everything in life seems so meaningless to me lately
everything that i do seems empty and unsatisfying
i should know better, i've been raised in a christian home all my life and grew up with church
yes i know i am saved, i know i haven't been living the "true" christian life lately but i just haven't had the motivation or the desire to lately either
or maybe this is how i have always felt, but growing up i've always had something to fill it with ie. sports, video games, friends, things that can entertain me and keep my mind occupied
i know i could be using my time to help people and further the cause of christ, but lately i've also lost the desire to help people too
people are ungrateful, needy, and expect everything for nothing
it's almost easy to say thank god jesus loves you because i don't

can someone point out the error of my ways? maybe i'm just in denial?

...the real sacrifice is to help others when you don't feel like it .

John 13:34-35
34 “A new command I give you: Love one another. As I have loved you, so you must love one another. 35 By this everyone will know that you are my disciples, if you love one another.”

Everything you do reflects God.

You should be happy to do those things.

If its not you need to figure out what will motivate you again.

Good luck.


We all lose faith at some point, but the fact that the world is in such desperate need of us, should be enough motivation to keep on us track.

We are blessed, truly. That is something we must always share.

Remember that the darker this evil world gets, the brighter his light will shine, and the closer his return will be.

Pray for restoration :)
It's hard for me to help people that aren't deserving
but I do because He instructed me to.

It all goes to this.
Whenever I get to heaven, all I want to hear is "Well done, my good and faithful servant."
Anything and Everything I do is because of this reason.

Also, most people turn to God when they're "in the dumps" or at an "all time low"
but what people don't see if they should always face God, pray to God even when life seems amazing
because in the end he'd be the one to thank

So right now, even though you're upset, come@God and when you're feeling on top of the world again
Come@God again

God is more than Jesus.

Your life is meaningless because you know all about Jesus and there is nothing about Jesus that you don't know.

But open your eyes to the garden of God and admire his work as a new hobby. (maybe go to the zoo or to a public garden or parc, feed the ducks)
