God wants you to, depress you?I mean, we all fall short. But, when you look back on what you've committed (sinfully speaking), do you feel that you sometimes say why bother? Not merely as an excuse to continue sinning, but saying to yourself it is so difficult to do His will, that you say, how can I achieve it? I'm just a sinner afterall, and that despite constant effort, my failures all come back to haunt me, or that I wonder why bother when I continually fail? Why upset Him more than I must?
Religion is the problem, not pleasing god.....God needs no pleasing. It only wants for you to be what you want to create in your life and be happy.
