I really need prayer because honestly i still have doubts for my faith. Maybe i should learn to pray more, i haven't really been praying all that much. I honestly don't really know if i fit into Christianity or if this path is right for me. Honestly i want to learn more about God and why he made me.

I just need some encouragement or prayers. Thanks.

Honest doubt is healthier than dishonest certainty. Don't worry, you're on the right track. Keep an open mind would be my advice and don't be afraid to make mistakes. We all do. Its part of the journey.

"You're fearfully and wonderfully made"; "Cast all your cares upon Him for He cares for you". Seek His Face son, and your doubts will disappear. He loves skeptics (remember Thomas?). God bless :).

I will pray for you, brother. But you must pray for yourself too! If you truly want to know God, and know why He has made you... You must believe in Him and that He will show His face to you. Have you said the sinner's prayer? To have God work miracles in your life, you need to accept truly that you are imperfect... You have to lift up your sins to God and let Him wash them from you. Every evil you have ever done will be forgiven of you, as long as you forgive yourself enough to allow God to enter into your life...

Enter through the narrow gate. For wide is the gate and broad is the way that leads to destruction, and many enter through it. But small is the gate and narrow the way that leads to life, and only a few find it. - Matthew 7:13-14

1 John 4:16 - And we have known and believed the love that God hath to us. God is love; and he that dwelleth in love dwelleth in God, and God in him.

John 3:16 - For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
http://biblehub.com/greek/846.htm
1 John 4:19 - We love him, because he first loved us.
This road is hard honey. But it is worth it... Keep searching and seeking the truth, and you will inevitably find it! Do not give up, and turn your face towards God. He loves you more than you'll ever know... And He will never hurt you or cause you to suffer at His hands, because... He is not like us. He is perfect, and He cares deeply for His creations.

P.s. reading His word will help you A LOT!!! Read Genesis, and then perhaps go straight to the New Testament if you are strapped for time... Either way, God's word invigorates His believers and enables them to be filled with His love :)

Daily Scripture reading, done in dependence on God, is a real blessing. So important to keep it up. :)

Father, I pray that You would strongly impress this one with the need to focus on searching Your Word to gain the faith and direction they need in their life. Romans 10:17; Proverbs 3:5-6; Jeremiah 15:16; John 14:22-23; 1 Thessalonians 5:17; John 14:6; Revelation 4:11. May he looks read these verses I have given and see that they give answers to the questions he has ask, and that he will pay close attention to these answers from YOU!! Amen.

The only way to know and grow in the Lord is to work on your relationship through prayer and spiritual reading....daily.
May He draw you close and grace you with His Presence, light, and peace :crossrc:

Thanks for sharing, friend. God’s grace is expressed to us in the love with which He draws us to Himself. Know that I’ll be lifting you up before the Lord, asking Him to increase your joy, strengthen you faith, and renew your sense of belonging in His family as you grow in your walk with Him. Blessings!

Just try not to fall into the trap of thinking that you have to fit into this 'Cookie Cutter' Christian lifestyle to be a Christian. I've met different types of good Christians. You'll have your Christians who live in church, then you'll have your Christians who live outdoors rock climbing & surfing...just to name two. I sometimes would find a person to be very interesting, then I remember being shocked when I found out they were a Christian. I've even said stuff like "Really?? You???" I had a cookie cutter image of being a Christian.
