Everyday I feel this fear and stress about eternity and God and it seems everyday now I'm breaking into tears when I'm alone. Thinking about myself going to Hell, and everyone I love going to Hell and everyone I know going to Hell breaks me. And yet I feel that I'm too new and inexperienced to say anything nor do I know how to talk about it or bring it up. (Through my life I struggle with social awkwardness and anxiety. It's getting better but still...)
And while I intend to do what I can to follow the Word of God, it terrifies me that if I miss something or don't follow something correctly then I'll be damned to Hell. And I don't have anyone to help me.
People have told me that when you are saved by Jesus, you are given the Holy Spirit. But only God can give you the Holy Spirit and you can only try to follow His Word to the best of your ability. It scares me to think that I may never receive the Holy Spirit.
Plus there is that foreboding warning of how narrow is the way to righteousness and how the way to evil is broad and many go there, yet few find the way to Jesus. Well...in my life I was rarely ever one of the few.
