ANSWER:

Thanks for sharing Aditi. I'm sorry you feel abandoned. If there is anything in our lives that prevents us from a right relationship with God, it separates us from him. I encourage you to ask him to show you what that may be - if there is anything. A few passages that comes to mind is...

"Come close to God, and he will come close to you. Cleanse your hands, you sinners, and purify your hearts, you double-minded." - James 4:8

"Create in me a pure heart, O God,
and renew a steadfast spirit within me.

Do not cast me from your presence
or take your Holy Spirit from me.

Restore to me the joy of your salvation
and grant me a willing spirit, to sustain me." -Psalm 51: 10-12
