The law of God, the teachings of Jesus and the result of living as close to a Christ-like state are not things that should be burdensome.
Naturally, we will not achieve as much as we would wish, at times, and sometimes we do not seem to be getting any assistance from any source.
Could you really say that your belief gives you satisfaction, gives you comfort and imparts knowledge to you daily life? Is there a real solution to the problems of the world explained in your religious teachings? Can your clergy answer questions that may be perplexing you, or do they just use the well worn excuse "It is your cross to bear"?
God is the epitome of love, God is love, he cares about his creation and wants us all to be in a paradise earth, as he promised mankind in the beginning of man's creation.
Is it not easier to imagine a perfect earth (not this place were we spend such a short time), rather than a heavenly or hell existence? Eden was a perfect place, it needed care and attention, the animals were in subjection to man and were tame, there was plenty of foliage for the animals and they in turn kept up the duty of gardeners. This creation was well balanced, pleasant to a high degree, and along with a little constraint and faithfulness to God, man was given the offer of everlasting life in this Paradise.
We can't help our created persona that differentiate us from the animals, humans are Rational, Reasonable and Religious, and we expect some comfort and understanding from our beliefs.
Do you feel that your religion can give you all the answers, faithfully, truthfully and adding a comfort to your life?
There is only one truth, as there is only one God, and the truth will set you free.
Jesus spirit is here night and day around the clock , and will bring comfort if problems come He brings hope, and when any pain come , He brings relief by His authority in the spirit and the pain is gone ..... If a demon were to come and tell here something , Jesus spirit would tell me every times `lies``, so to identify the demon and to caste him down to Jesus, which Jesus spirit has here to over come the challenge on the world and the spirits that are not of God ..................... Jesus spirit gives here a quicken of understanding and insight and even on my Job of employment Jesus spirit tell here of Jobs coming hours before they show up so I can be ready or prepared, and Jesus gives here insight into the Bible and the many meaning and purposes of the scriptures, and remembering of scripture which I have heard ................... Go to church as often as I can and never find it a bother, and Just stay home , as I go to church for Jesus , but the people there and their gifts of the spirit are a bonus for blessing ...
If you're secure....why do you have so many people on ignore?
Or is that part of it....your religion makes you feel secure and loved... so you just hit the ignore button so you don't have to deal with the rif-raf and heathens you think are cluttering up the board. How do you spread the Good News if you've got all the people you think are trolling heathens and headed to hell on "ignore"?? Not enough love to go around?
Does God love the people you've put on ignore? So many question, jimmie. So many questions.....Which you won't answer because, oh yeah! you've put me on ignore.

My personal relationship with Jesus is an ever-present comfort and and it is the most satisfying thing in my life.
That being said, I think you missed the mark with God's desire, which is not for us to be in paradise per se, but for us to have unbroken fellowship with Him. That is the ultimate gift that could be given to us.
