not sure about things

Hello. A few days ago I asked God to come into my life. It is really new.. and I have to admit that a part of me is slightly afraid. I have known my whole life that I need God, I was brought up to go to church and I used to feel a real connection with God when I was younger. But about 5 or 6 years ago I stopped feeling. I am trying to do something about that, but I'm afraid that I won't live up to the expectations, the way I'm supposed to Live, and most of the time, I don't even know what those expectations really are. But, I do know that I have been lost and empty for so long, and I KNOW that I need the Lord. I still feel depressed though. I am living in the UK and it's so dark and cold here, I don't know.. it's just that I'm sad all the time. I'm in the military, so I have no family here either. Everyone around me wants to party all the time, and most have such negative outlooks on life, it's hard finding the right person or people to hang out with. I just want to know if it's normal to feel so much for God, to Love HIM so much, to ask and have HIM in your life and yet get so sad? have bad, aweful thoughts about some people around you? have horrible nightmares? Is this normal? I wish all these depressing feelings would just go away for good... I know I need God, there is NO other way.. but I guess I'm still lost. |
