I believe Our Lady of Medugorje will answer many of your questions! I am so happy that you are going on this pilgrimage! The Lords Mercy is Supreme! Holy! Holy! Holy! Alleluia! Alleluia! Alleluia! Lord God Of Hosts Heaven and Erath are Full of Thy Glory! Blessed is He that Comes forth in the Name of the Lord Hosanna in the Highest!
I feel I've committed sins in the past which God wont forgive. I've confessed all my sins and am sorry but I feel rejected by God. I'm going through terrible darkness. There aretimes I feel close to God then that goes away and I feel abandoned. I hope Jesus has mercy on me and Mary can help me through this.
Renewed baptismal promises and received Holy Communion at Mass this morning which seemed to help and bring new hope.
I am so grateful to hear this. The renewal of baptismal promises is VERY strong against the devil I believe.
I'm still suffering feeling abandoned by God. I wish he would show his face. I read something from the Bible today which only seemed to increase my anxiety.
You know the totality of the bible, Sanctus and the gestalt: that the whole is greater than the sum of its parts, therefore you know not to be anxious over one small part as you understand the overall message. If anyone has been anyway nice to you today, that is God's face.
I feel very abandoned. I wonder is God punishing me. I go to mass and confession but feel terrible. I dont know what to do anymore
Fight, Sanctus. Fight with all you've got. When you feel abandoned, fight back, saying - Jesus will not abandon me. When you feel you will not be forgiven, say - Jesus forgives me. When you feel He is not near you, say - Jesus is right here. Your enemy is your mind. Fight back.
I can't remember if I've suggested this before but try praying to and developing a devotion to Our Lady of Sorrows. Fr. Chad Ripperger said that Her Third Sorrows in particular applies well to spiritual struggles like this.
I dont know when this struggle will end. I feel hopeless. I wish Our Lady was here with me. I feel I have no where to turn to because I feel God has rejected me.
