For some reason I thought you were a Christian. Perhaps I made a mistake.
People are people christian or not. We all have bad thoughts, we all do things and say things we shouldn’t. Christians are not perfect people and I hate that people expect them to be. No one is perfect.
Just because someone tells you they are a Christian doesn’t necessarily mean that they are. Just because someone goes to a Christian church doesn’t make them a Christian.

When you said,”that religion” it sounded like you weren’t a part of it.@CrusaderAztecheart

What? Why would you want this? Christianity is not just a religion...it’s a personal relationship through prayer with Jesus. If you are treating it as just a religion then this might be giving you problems. @CrusaderAztecheart

Of course it is a religion, but a Christian is not just someone who leans on religion ....a Christian believes in the birth, the death, and the resurrection of Christ. He doesn’t put his faith into just religion, but into Christ and Christ alone.@CrusaderAztecheart

Doesn’t have to be. Pray about it...read scripture....those two things are the only two things that help people truely understand it all. Without those two things you are just wandering and will get lost easily.@CrusaderAztecheart

It’s really hard to answer as all three are essential and wonderful. Neither is better than the other. Paul acknowledges faith, hope, and love are all essential and eternal, but identifies love as greatest of all.From a theological point of view love as the greatest because it is essential to the very nature of God. John 1:4-8 says God is love. Scripture never says God is faith or hope, though he is he object of our faith and hope. Love is necessary to the triune God as blood is to a living being. The interrelationship of father, son, and the Holy Spirit is defined in terms of mutual love. So in this sense love is greater than faith or hope.

Everyone struggles with their faith, but
be careful here because the Bible repeatedly tells us we are saved by God’s grace through faith and never by good works.
Ephesians 2:8-9
For it is by grace that you have been saved, through faith and this is not from yourselves. This is the gift from God...not by works... so that no one can boast.
I encourage you to read the New Testament.
Blessings to you.
