I have been asked this question so many times. And you have no idea how many times I have simply pointed up to the sky and just walked away.
I have been going through a less than excellent time lately. I recently got kicked out of the house for having drugs (I didn't have them and have no idea how they got into the house.) and my parents didn't even believe me. Then when I needed my real dad the most, he told me I would ammount to nothing. I have told this story to lots of people at my church and everytime they ask me, "How have you gone this long and still stayed faithful to the Lord?"
Jesus went through so much for me. He died for me. Just because things look bad right now is not and never will be and excuse enough to fall away from God. I know that the devil is testing me and I know that the second I start to blame God for all of this then he has won half the battle. I made that mistake once before when my parents got divorced and I went down a path I never wanted to go down. After I came back to Christ a second time I have never been happier. Now I am wanting to go to college to be a youth pastor and am so excited for what God has planned for me.
Now isn't that a heck of a first blog entry?
