fedupchristian

This looks like an old thread and I'm not sure if you're still reading it, but if you are there's a lot of good advice here that I hope you can take to heart. God loves you and will never let you down, even though it might seem like it sometimes, but those trials just make you stronger if you let them.

Call me a fed up Christian too, if you like...although, I'm an atheist now. Some may suggest that I was never truly a Christian, but they know precious little about me, or what a human is capable of. It's ok to let go. You've nothing to lose but your anger, disappointment, and angst.

Welcome to TJ.

I hope you find encouragement here, but I'm afraid if your experience is anything like mine, you won't find much more than meaningless, cliche platitudes in the way of answers.

Here's hoping.

All you've done is whine about others here and complain. Go find another community to harass.

Thanx for replying... I m fed up of everything really... fed up false promises, fed up of false pastors or evangelists, fed up that the innocents and weak still suffer and the bad guys if I can say so are still victorious in everything they do... When are we gonna start enjoying this life, I m myself think never, I ve been a fervent pentecotalist for the past 20 years and I m only 27. All the promises made to me have never happened instead all the bad things that never supposed to happen did.... So there it is I m fed up, have lost faith and just looking for answers at this point in my life....

You start with yourself so your not the problem and become an example for others. Then you do what you can and leave the rest to God, knowing that nothing is perfect in this life and that's why it is called heaven!:wink:

I can definitely relate to your mentality right now, as I've been there before myself. I've been trying very hard to look into myself to discover the reasons why I felt so angry, and disappointed.

I firmly believe the answers will come when we are ready to accept them. I hope you stick around. Maybe this community can help out.

Even Jesus desciples had troubles of this world after Jesus ascended. Jesus himself said "in this world you will have troubles" the bad things in life are bound to happen as long as you are on this earth. The question is, where do you put your hope and faith in the face of these tribulations? Jesus also said "take heart for I have overcome the world." I am not saying that faith doesn't open the door for miracles and deliverence but by the same token, we were never promised a smooth ride, just a safe landing. I would say that your faith is going through a refining fire right now. Be prayerful that God helps you see what you need to see and put as much trust in Him as you possibly can. As tough as it may seem, He won't let you go beyond His reach, just beyond your comfort zone.
