I have tough situations just like any other person. After seeing the pain on my mother because of her cancer and how my faith was starting to become weaker a weaker I decided to analyze the causes.

Maybe I just want to write that's it!
spiritual coldness in the life of a christian is part of a mature christian life.
Maybe I just want to write that's it!
spiritual coldness in the life of a christian is part of a mature christian life.
One will experience spiritual coldness at some point and some characteristics are:
- existentialism for many aspects of life
- many doubts
- questions
- annoyance to the christian faith
- despair and discontent with some christian people
- lack of faith
- Knowing what Jesus wants but avoid applying it
- hard time believing all things come for good purpose of God
- hard time believing the will of God is helping at the moment
- desire to go nuts and go back to the past sinful life
reasons for the spiritual coldness:
- circumstances in life
- things aren't going the way we want.
- unrealistic expectations from before. Like believing God is your servant and thinking that all people who claim to be Christians are truly Christ alike.
Solutions:
- Ask God for Love
- Ask God for revelation
- Be honest in your prayers with God.
- Start practicing and improving FAITH
- be basically calm and avoid going back to the sinful past
- be a lot more patient
- don't take your emotional pain on to people.
- be silent so you won't destroy people with your words
- think before acting and talking
- Prudence
- Tolerance
Keep struggling and as Winston Churchill said "We Shall never surrender..."
