Question for believers

At least try to follow His teachings and turn away from doing bad things, but it's really hard. Every day it's a struggle against one's own nature and wanting to give in to doing what you want, rather than what's right. Often followers fail in these struggles, though it's not the end of the world if they do. Everybody stumbles when on the path to trying to do better. It's harder when you don't have a group of friends of the same faith to look to for emotional/spiritual support.

Having faith is also important. It's not enough to pray when times are bad. You should pray in thanks when times are good too. Trying to help others and put their needs before ours is also something we're encouraged to do, but again, it's not easy. Sometimes people don't want help, despite needing it. Or sometimes you don't have the means to help. Again, it's really difficult, but not impossible.

Mere mortals (followers) do stuff for God every day, but a lot of people either ignore it, or think it has no effect on the rest of the world. Even one random act of kindness can have some kind of effect on the world, whether the majority knows it or not.
