I am really struggling to comprehend...

That God could love me and yet judge me so harshly. It just doesn't sit right with me. The threat of going to hell if I do something wrong can really play on my mind. I don't like the thought of a God who would do that to me. How can I love a God like that? I'm seriously beginning to question my beliefs. It's not that I want to not believe in God atal. I'd just like to believe in a God who is loving and accepting of everyone. But I don't know where to start with that belief. I don't want to be pagan I've been there I know that for sure. There must be a way of believing that is outside the constraints of religion. I don't know where to look though. Plus that would mean leaving behind everything I've been taught. I'm pondering things like if I don't believe in a judgemental God does that mean I don't believe in Jesus? Or are any of his teachings still valid? It's like I have this desire for a complete shake up in my beliefs and yet I'm too scared to implement this. Simply because I'm scared of being attacked by demons again. This unsurety keeps happening, its like a cycle that repeats. It feels like I am spiritually stagnant. Like I'm not going anywhere spiritually. That this cycle is because I'm missing something but I don't know what. I'm not happy that's for sure and I miss my crystals, oracle cards and daily meditation. Something needs to change. I'm spiritually searching for a way to be me and encorporate everything I enjoy. The closest thing I've found is new age belief. But it's all about manifesting stuff and that's not what I want either. There has to be something else...

I lost God for a time but he found me again and now we are good friends
@nevergiveup He never left you. The Bible says it is us who always Drift from him, not the other way around, but he is always waiting for us to come back and fellowship with him as He loves us beyond measure.
@LadyGrace He is my guide and when i feel low he brings me back up
@nevergiveup Amen, brother in Christ. I am so happy and proud that you have received Jesus as your Savior. That is the one and most important thing you could do in your whole life. God bless you and help you grow in Him.
@LadyGrace sometimes i need his strength to get me through the day
@nevergiveup Yes, indeed. We all do. Every day. And the more we read our Bible and pray and fellowship with Him, the closer we will be. As the Bible says that we do not fight against men, but spiritual principalities and powers each day, and the way to do that is to trust in the Lord, resist the devil in Jesus's name and by His authority, and arm ourselves with the Spirit of God through His Word and prayer.
