I was born and raised Christian. Yet when I was 17, I fell from God–hated God. I blamed him for all my struggles. I always thought I was a modern-day job–made to suffer in life. I have since repented, but for some reason, I never feel forgiven. I've given my heart to Christ many times thinking I’ve backslidden to the point that I am not a Christian anymore. I just keep blaming God for my problems. How do I get out of the cycle? I want to feel secure in being a Christian and not look back on my past failures.
