I'm a backsliding Christian. When I first came to the Lord I felt free from the Law for the first time in my life. I knew nothing about Christianity except that Jesus died for my sins. I was confused about it and I was 100% honest with God about my feelings for the first time ever, & from there He took over & it was so incredible I can't even begin to describe, it was almost like a transformation overnight. My desires changed & every single one of my prayers were answered in a significant way. I was going through a really painful time in my life but I still felt fulfilled & whole even when I felt empty, all thanks to God the Father & Jesus Christ. Well since then I've backslidden into my old ways for various inexcusable reasons. I miss Him & want Him to take me back but I've fallen back in love with my old ways. I know the Lord promises that if we humble ourselves, seek His face, confess our sins & turn from them, He'll restore & heal us, & make us right with Him again. I can't bring myself to fully repent again. I've prayed to God, been honest about this, come to Him truthfully desiring for Him to take over & change my heart but it doesn't seem to be happening. I remember my first experience with Him & I get discouraged when my experiences don't match up to that one. I wanna shake it off but I can't seem to. So I came to God & truthfully & wholeheartedly told Him that I'm guilty of breaking all of the Law & I've fallen away from Him & I want to come back to Him & know Him again but I can't bring myself to repentance. And from there I told Him to bring me back to Him in any way He sees fit w/o hurting/killing me and anyone I love... I know God is good & He loves me. I can't bring myself to repentance but I want to know Him again & be made right with Him. Even though I'm not made clean & right with Him, would God hear & listen to a prayer like this? I feel like I've prayed this 1,000,000 times & nothings happened. What could possibly be hindering my communication with God?
