motivation a lack of

[t4inted-]

Anyone struggle with being motivated in life I’m 25 turning 26 in a month. God came into my life when I was 22 and been following him since best thing that ever happened to me and he has transformed and changed my life and heart and I am 2 years clean off drugs and drinking and delivered from sins in my life.. I use to despise life and hate life or hated my life, I thought there was nothing in me that I could ever achieve and went about my own lusts and corruptions before the Lord came into my life and now I desire to live for him and obey him and devote myself to him and his will and purpose for me... been through a great fight of afflictions and a lot of opposition of moving forward in life or in serving God that it would discourage me.

one thing I have been struggling with is being motivated I’ve persisted on doing good and to serve and obey the Lord since he came into my life and the Lords been good to me. but I can find it hard to wake up and find that there isn’t much I can do, and even when I do good evil is present and I just would feel alone walking alone in this life the days never seem to change and it’s like I’m just a shadow passing by. As in corinthians when it speaks about being troubled on every side perplexed but not distressed persecuted but not forsaken.. it’s almost like there’s a wall of Jericho set up that I cannot seem to pass by in moving forward with my life like the army of darkness is set up against me from advancing.

It feels like a burden I am carrying or I feel like the burden..

Some of these problems are common at your age. Fighting the temptation of sin however has no age limit. At your age your best approach, imo, is to focus on yourself. Care for your health, education, and career...and family if you have one. This will prepare you for greater service later. Don't try to be a spiritual hero.

This is a common temptation to believers all over the world:

It feels like a burden I am carrying or I feel like the burden..

=================================================================
It is true that there is not much you can do. This is mentioned perhaps quite a number of times throughout all Scripture, TORAH, Prophets, Psalms and NT.

It is true that even when we do good, evil is present/ close by/ and we can often FEEL ALONE....

It is true that the days never seem to change. Multitudes mock the Creator and continuously rebel against HIM (YES against GOD) DAILY, thinking they are getting away with sinning with no punishment (yet they are doomed (as written: "there is a way that SEEMS RIGHT to a man, but the end thereof is the way of destruction") ....).

The Israelites themselves could not bring down the walls of Jericho.
Neither can we.

It is true that the army of darkness, including hasatan and the angels that fell with him, are set up against everyone to prevent everyone from even finding salvation, (if that were possible).

and find that there isn’t much I can do, and even when I do good evil is present and I just would feel alone walking alone in this life the days never seem to change and it’s like I’m just a shadow passing by. As in corinthians when it speaks about being troubled on every side perplexed but not distressed persecuted but not forsaken.. it’s almost like there’s a wall of Jericho set up that I cannot seem to pass by in moving forward with my life like the army of darkness is set up against me from advancing.

Thus, the answer,
the salvation,
the deliverance,
the truth that sets people free,
is found by a few.

Never found by the many.

Per Scripture: Seek Him while He May Be Found. Use ALL that is within to enter His Kingdom, for many strive to enter in, and fail.
