I don't know what's wrong with me

The reason I'm not experiencing any joy is because I am just so depressed, feel like my whole life has been and still is, a waste. I'm 26 and have nothing to show for it. My prayers go unanswered, seems like I pray in vain. I'm constantly struggling between obeying God and giving into the pleasures of the flesh.
I don't feel that calmness or peace after prayer like I once felt. Perhaps God has forsaken me.... because He has shown me the truth and has forgiven
me and I turned my back on him and went back to my old ways. So perhaps I've committed the unforgiveable sin, and it's too late too be forgiven again in this age. I don't know, but it just seems like God hates me and is refusing to allow anything happen in my life that would bring me any sort of happiness and thankfuless and that would make me actually be glad to be alive. And like I said before, this is only the tip of the iceberg.

Hi Chuck,
No I have not seen that movie. But thanks for posting. What you said caused me to think.
Take care,

Your statement of "...This is only the tip of the iceberg..." got me thinking about how hard it is to quit certain bad habits and even sins.

Hello Sorin. I was just wondering had you ever thought about confessing your certain habits and even sins to THE BROTHERHOOD? James 5:16 - Confess your faults one to another, and pray one for another, that ye may be healed. The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth much. This is how i believe we can keep the flow of THE SPIRIT to maintain our togetherness. 1 Corinthians 12:25-26 says - That there should be no schism in the body; but that the members should have the same care one for another. And whether one member suffer, all the members suffer with it; or one member be honoured, all the members rejoice with it. Lies, hypocrisy, and cover ups impede flow of THE SPIRIT.
If you feel there are certain believers you can trust, open up your heart and spell out in gruesome detail what's plaguing you. True brethren are not scrutinizing and judgmental when it comes to a beloved brother. They have the love of Christ. 1 Corinthians 13:4 - Charity suffereth long, and is kind; charity envieth not; charity vaunteth not itself, is not puffed up, Pray, and if THE SPIRIT leads, confess your faults among the brotherhood. We can't judge you because in THE BODY OF CHRIST, your faults are our faults. 1 Corinthians 12:25-26 says - That there should be no schism in the body; but that the members should have the same care one for another. And whether one member suffer, all the members suffer with it; or one member be honoured, all the members rejoice with it.
IN HIS LOVE,
Bradford
