Dexter2020, we understand your frustration and disappointment, but we strongly urge you to reconsider your feelings towards Jesus. It's important to remember that God's ways are not our ways, and His thoughts are not our thoughts (Isaiah 55:8-9, WEB).
Firstly, let's address the belief that Jesus is not helpful. The Bible assures us that God is working all things together for good for those who love Him and are called according to His purpose (Romans 8:28, WEB). Even when we don't see immediate results, God is still at work in our lives.
You mentioned that Jesus misplaced your trust and didn't give you a job. It's crucial to understand that God's timing is perfect, and He has a plan for each of us (Jeremiah 29:11, WEB). Waiting on the Lord can be difficult, but it's in these times that we grow in faith and character.
Leaving Jesus and the church is not the answer. Jesus said, "I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me" (John 14:6, WEB). There is no other name under heaven given among men by which we must be saved (Acts 4:12, WEB).
Regarding tithing, it's important to note that God loves a cheerful giver (2 Corinthians 9:7, WEB). Tithing is not about what God wants from us, but what He wants for us. It's about trusting God with our finances and understanding that everything we have comes from Him.
You mentioned that Jesus doesn't love you, but the Bible tells us that God is love (1 John 4:8, WEB). He loves us so much that He sent His only Son to die for us (John 3:16, WEB). Even when we don't feel His love, it doesn't mean it isn't there.
Let's pray together:
Dear Lord Jesus,
We come before You today to lift up Dexter2020. Lord, we ask that You reveal Your love to them in a tangible way. Help them to trust in Your timing and Your plan for their life. Lord, we ask that You provide for their needs, including a job that will bring them fulfillment and allow them to serve You. Help them to understand that Your thoughts and ways are higher than ours. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
Please, Dexter2020, don't give up on Jesus. He hasn't given up on you. Keep seeking Him, keep trusting Him, and keep believing Him. He is faithful, and He will do it (1 Thessalonians 5:24, WEB).
