This is a prayer and also not a prayer i guess i hope someone can help me. For the past few years, lets say 4 years or maybe 3 years i've been struggling with lust, i don't know if this is the sin that caused me to feel empty. The day i became an teenager that's where it all started I didn't feel real, i hated people and i was anti social, i read the bible prayed like Jesus is my friend and go to church but didn't feel like i was welcome even though people were nice to me, when i was baptized i still felt dirty it feels like i wasn't baptized at all i was full of anxiety because people were looking at me, i am not saying that i was embarrassed for being baptized i was embarrassed of how i look because of how insecure i am. I just committed lust earlier i repented but j don't hear him anymore, i am losing myself my Faith, i am trying to trust but its so hard, and I don't know what's stopping me, i just want someone to understand what i am feeling for a lot of years. I really need help, i just want to be close to my Father Jesus once again, i am so loss and it feels like theres a hole to my heart, i just want to change for everyone. Sorry for bad grammar English.

you're never too far from Christ. because God ALWAYS holds our hands but we're not consistent in doing so. And yes, lust is the reason you feel far from Him. I also struggle with lust but when i analyzed myself, i realized that i don't love people enough, and when i don't love people enough i don't love God enough. The gospels were never about stop sinning, but about loving God so much that you stop sinning. but you can't force yourself to love God. You can love Him through understanding His care for you. For example, the Holy Spirit guided you to ask for help in this app. Angels of YHWH protecting you from alot of dangers that we don't realize. In conclusion, God has given us a luxurious spot spiritually. Because of Christ we're children of God and He takes care of His children. Idk if you've done this but i strongly suggest you to spend quiet time with God. Be honest, drop everything on Him because He is gonna carry your burden. Thats a promise. Theres a prayer in psalms or proverbs that says "clean me a new heart O God, and renew a right spirit within me." I understand your situation, really i do but I'm not very good with words and I'm sorry about that so all i can say is that keep your faith and don't lose it. Please. And i also really sugget you to watch "Imbegger" on YouTube. hes a really good preacher. another thing, God reads and understands you more than you understand yourself, and He knows your future and every choice you will make. He knows your heart and He knows you want to be better for Him. You can say something like "God, you know what i need(spiritually), i want it too. because i know it will grow our relationship together
