My love for God

[IsBeingaNewbsobad]

Being raised from a Roman-Catholic family, I was always taught to love God for everything he has given us.

In the last few years of my high school career, I was sent away to a military school were I didnt see much of my girlfriend or my family, except for breaks or when my girlfriend drove down from new jersey to virginia just to see me.

Anyway, at this point, I started getting really lonely and depressive. I mean yeah, I had friends here, but it wasnt the same being away from home for so long with so many restrictions.

Returning home was the best thing ever for me, and i decided to joing the church chorus. It was so amazing, I loved it, and I enjoyed using my talent to praise God.

Now, I feel strong with my religions and I feel like I can talk to God whenever and He will always be there for me.

Without God in my life, or the love of Jesus for us, I dont think I could make it through some rough times.

I know that my Grandfathers are in heaven now play chess or something with God. Haha, yeah. Oh and God is jamaican and into Rasta.

Hes pretty cool actually.

I sort of struggle in finding a relationship with God, but thinking of God always gives me comfort when I think of loved ones who have died...

Thats good to hear.

God is always there to help you and I'm glad you found time to look at my post.

If you would like to talk about God with me, I'm all ears to your ideas.

I think this is the main reason I'm not religious. I've never felt like I couldn't 'make it through' by myself per se. I've always liked being dependant on myself for things like that.

That's not to say I haven't had my fair share of bad times because BELIEVE ME I have.

But if you're happy with your faith then I'm happy for you. I hope you (and other deeply religious people) are happy for me and my lack of faith. It should all be about respect shouldn't it?
