Fear of becoming a different religion

[kittyio]

I feel so distant from Jesus.
I keep having thoughts that saying I will become a Muslim if I do various things like go swimming or taking a hike. I fear that if I do those things I will suddenly become a different religion and sometimes I feel like I have somehow and it is very upsetting. Please help

like go swimming or taking a hike.

I don't understand why swimming or hiking would make you feel that way. Please explain

If you feel so distant from Jesus, may I suggest some heavenly realignment. PRAY and PRAY with all your heart to ask for some help, realign your mind, realign your heart and walk with him as he walks with you. Sometimes we can end up in a desert, just like our human relationships, it’s not all love and peace all of the time. It takes some work on our part to engage, to slow down and reevaluate.

Whatever we need as Christians is already there, we just need to work at it.

God Bless You

Sometimes we have "weird/bizarre thoughts" .... if they aren't biblically based (of which these are not) .... we should dismiss these thoughts.

Being close to Jesus is reading His word every day and learning His precepts and abiding by them and through prayer.
