< I've sinned so much and have asked God for His forgiveness, but why do I still have the feeling of guilt? >
There is absolutely no sin that is too big or too small.
You understand 'guilt' but you don't fully understand the greatness of God's forgiveness.
When you accept Jesus as your Saviour, God promised that He would never stop forgiving you no matter what you do.
He continues to purify us as we continue to try to live our lives as good Christians.
God wants you to know that you are forgiven, but it's Satan that wants you to feel guilty.
He wants you to have that guilty feeling as a separation from you and God.
Satan works in us but with the power of God,
we're able to fight back.
When Jesus died on the cross, He died to pay the penalty for ALL of our sins of the entire world.
Feelings can change easily;
the weather, your school grades, your day at work, your menstrual cycle mood swings (hehe)..
But God's Word never changes.
Put your faith in the facts of the Bible and not your feelings.
God is love; God loves His Creation; God loves you.
Live a life pleasing to God.
If you sin, don't pretend that it didn't happen and that you don't need forgiveness because it's no big deal;
.. confess your sins because God is faithful and just and will purify us from all that we've done.
Just as God forgives us, forgive others.
I'm forgiven, therefore I forgive.
