The church probably told you the importance of prayer, daily bible study, or being active in the church. They push these on people to encourage them to build a relationship with Christ. However, it can also feel like you have to do certain actions to be put on God’s good side. You become enslaved to performing your religious duties, and the moment you miss a prayer you start to feel guilty. The truth is though that no matter how active you are in the church or how much you pray, you will not earn extra from God. God doesn’t love you because of the things you have done, He loves you because of what Jesus did to save you. He wants you to build a relationship with Him, not feel it’s an obligation.
