God what do you think about Religion?


Once in my prayers I thought it would be OK to ask God what he thinks about religions. It might sound strange and even weird someone asking God for this. Primarily because we relate religion with God himself, and the thing is that God is in this spiritual realm maybe thinking "What are these people doing?" "How can they hate each other so much".

Is very difficult to understand God but is even harder to understand why throughout history of mankind it seems like religion has and is been causing more harm than love. Is not necessary to remember all the horrors so many religions have perpetrated. Worst yet is the fact that most religions are based on a message preaching Love, peace, respect and high morals.


The only thing that keeps me going to church and protects me from becoming an agnostic or atheist is the message of Jesus. I only have to say that there is a big difference in going to church and repeat in a hypocritical manner what you hear and really understand what Jesus says and try to apply it to your life.

Whenever you doubt and feel life doesn't make any sense. Read the words of Jesus. Get a bible with the red letters of Jesus printed on it. I am sure that if you do this in the tough times you will feel a spiritual presence telling you is not over yet.  

The love and presence of Jesus be with you...

Spiritual Coldness

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. 



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..."
