I have grown nearly completely tepid as a Catholic…It’s been November since I haven’t felt like God was a complete stranger to me, and although things weren’t terrible in the beginning, I feel like they’re completely spiraling out of control now. I just feel like I don’t have it in me to care anymore. I try to think about God’s love for me, but I can never hold on to it and so I don’t bother. I even try to scare myself into repenting, by reading about hell, God’s judgment, etc. But I have been falling into the same sins over and over again, and I cannot act like I care anymore when I truly don’t. I realize that I’m not even trying at this point, and that is the problem. I don’t have the motivation in me to try.

My life has been nothing but an emotional rollercoaster lately, and all completely negative. I’ll fool myself into falling into the same sins, and then act like it doesn’t matter. But ofc when I try to pray afterwards, I’m completely averted because I know what I’ve done, and I know I’m not trying to change.

I just very desperately need prayers. Please pray that I become motivated, and trust in God’s love and mercy, and love Him in return. And that I am patient with myself. I feel like I’m falling into despair at this point, because I don’t see myself turning away from these sins, and yet I know that I have no idea when death will come. By the time I want to change, it will be too late.
 
Remember,
O most gracious Virgin Mary that never was it known that anyone who fled to your protection, Implored your help, or sought your intercession, was left unaided.
Inspired by this confidence, I fly to you, O Virgin of virgins, my Mother. to you do I come, before you I stand, sinful and sorrowful. O Mother of the Word Incarnate, despise not my petitions, but in Thy mercy hear and answer me, Amen
 
The Lord is ALWAYS there for you…take a deep breath and pray. I will pray for you as well!
Praying for your success!
Our Father, Hail Mary, Glory Be, Fatima, Amen!
 
St. Michael the Archangel,
defend us in battle.
Be our defense against the wickedness and snares of the Devil.
May God rebuke him, we humbly pray,
and do thou,
O Prince of the heavenly hosts,
by the power of God,
thrust into hell Satan,
and all the evil spirits,
who prowl about the world
seeking the ruin of souls.

Amen.
 
Praying for you. The good news is that God does care about you. He loves you as you are. Jesus died for you. He died for sinners like you and me. Jesus said he didn’t come for the righteous but for sinners. Because it is not the healthy who need a doctor but the sick. Jesus is the great physician. Whatever problem you are experiencing he can help. Just go to him in prayer and let him know what is troubling you. Pray the rosary. Go to the Sacrament of Reconciliation and recieve his grace. Praying for you. Remember feelings come and go. Don’t rely on them as an indicator of your relationship with God. Just continue to pray anyways and strive for that holiness that we are called to.
