As a young teenager I often blamed God for the things that were happening in my life. My mom was on the verge of dying and my dad had kicked me out of the house. It got to the point where I didn’t only blame God but I assumed there was no God and church was a waste of time. As I hated my family and slowly lost friends I would purposely try and distance myself from anyone and anything willing to give me any type of love or attention. I got into bad crowds and did many things I regret deeply and forever will. Years have passed since then and I’ve now gone began going to church and committed to giving a place to God in my life. The pastor recently talked about how we distance ourselves from God and this hit very hard for me. I realized that I wasn’t trying to distance myself from my family or friends or anybody else except for God who showed me the most love out of everybody. I openly love God and I’m closing this Distance slowly and making amends with the years that I showed him no love.
