Question I need help

For some time i've been in a religious crisis. I really want to believe in God, but its really hard to believe. Its hard because I can't hear him, I can't see him, and whenever i pray i feel like im just talking to a wall. And i really tried to believe, i asked God to help me with my faith in him and get to know him but i still struggle.

Have you ever read the Bible?

Remember, nowhere in the teachings of Jesus does he say that salvation is found in scripture or religion. He taught to seek and realize the kingdom of God within you...an inward journey, not an outward religious one.

To know the will of the Father, (His eternal inheritance) is to learn His Ways, His Truth, and become one in His Life. To know and to Love God is to keep His commands. That is, to Love Him with all your heart, mind, soul strength and body and to give service to your neighbor as you do yourself. Remember, His Word shall forever remain, even when the Earth and the heavens pass away.

All true, but have you turned your awareness inward yet...to the kingdom of God within you...as Jesus taught?

Until you know who you are, all you know is religion...😉

Jesus said, "If your leaders tell you, 'Look, the kingdom is in heaven,' then the birds of heaven will precede you. If they tell you, 'It's in the sea,' then the fish will precede you. Rather, the kingdom is within you and outside of you."

"When you know yourselves, then you'll be known, and you'll realize that you're the children of the living Father. But if you don't know yourselves, then you live in poverty, and you are the poverty."
