My horrible OCD thoughts have been invading my head again and they have been thoughts like i'm not forgiven, or questions about God's existence. These thoughts are convincing which scares me because I don't want to believe them at all. I find it hard to get closer to God and I want to get closer and build a very strong relationship with Him but sometimes its hard. Will God forgive me these thoughts? Will He understand my OCD and situation?

Sorry! What´s OCD?

I see GOD forgives easier than us, humans.

Of course. He understands ALL.

OCD is a disorder it stands for obsessive compulsive disorder. When have OCD it can lead to Scrupulosity. It is when you get these thoughts that are unwelcome and its hard to get rid if them.

Yes! God understands your OCD. No question about it. You don't need to be forgiven for having a sudden odd thought, because it's not a sin. Strange things spring into all of our minds from time to time. Just don't dwell on them, they are not sin.

I'll say a prayer for you also, God bless.

But I'm starting to lose my faith and when. I read snivel verse, throughout reading the verse my faith goes up and down and it makes reading Bible verses unenjoyable. I want to have all my faith in God but don't know where it went. I was so happy and full of faith in God just a few hours ago. Is this because if OCD/Scrupulosity?

Okay first off yes Jesus and God completely understand but God also wants 2 heal you you dont have 2 claim OCD cause jesus took that from you 2000 years ago he says in his word that ever thing that has a name has 2 bow at the name of Jesus the bible also states by his stripes you are healed and best of all Jesus went around healing all who were sick and oppressed by the devil im 19 and ive been delivered from OCD my self this is why I can say this
