I've done the commitment ritual 3 years ago. Since that time, no matter how much I try, I can't advance. I never manifested something. I can't focus while meditating. I constantly have the feeling that I'm doing it wrong. My mind heavily runs based on logic and science, and sometimes I feel like aall of it pseudoscience even though deep down I still have that faith. I had so much doubts I literally tried to move out of zevism and read some texts and stuff and the next day I was crying because I didn't mean anything and I felt like I committed an unforgettable thing and I'm gonna be banished from zevism or something. I still have that heavy guilt for that one emotional action. And all the time, always, I just want a way to communicate with gods. I need signs. Signs that they are not mad at me. I don't know. I feel so bad. I feel like a bad follower/worshipper. I feel so bad that so many times I tried to gain things for myself instead putting most of my energy for him. But I could never quite get anything through manifestation so I guess even if I tried to commit my energy to him it would be useless. I can't do anything for myself, how can I do something for him?
I feel so powerless and insignificant. The fact that there are so many ways yet I seem like to be failing is driving me crazy. I can't do anything properly.
I even feel bad because a week ago I was again questioning everything because I was literally thinking that the gods couldn't possibly have chromosomes, so how do they even exist? How do they have genders?
I need clarity. Clarity on everything. On a path. On deities.
Sorry to write such a long post. But I couldn't keep these to myself. I really, really love and adore Zeus. I was drawn to him from the beginning. I used to write beautiful pieces for him. But all the time. Never I saw a sign. And I never advanced. I did some basic meditations but I got lost. I feel like no one hears me.
 
Even writing this text, I'm crying and shaking. I just want to be perfect for gods. I feel like I've made too much mistakes and neglected too much to be able to be good now. I don't even know where or how to start. There are so many things. So many meditations. So many rituals. Of course I can not do rituals. Because I can't even properly use my energy. It would be useless and just add to the huge stack of mistakes I had.
 
Always there is this "how can I be sure" thing for me. As I said my mind operates in a very logical way.
So for example when I constantly apologize for having doubts or wierd thoughts like the ones about their chromosomes, even though I know Zeus is forgiving, yet I still think how can I be sure I'm forgiven?
How can I be sure that he is not mad now?
How can I be sure I won't be punished or something?

If there was only a way to be able to communicate with him...I'd try. I'd try and try to reach that point. At this point only directly communicating with him could ease all of these.
 
I wrote so much i feel like nobody would ever read it. I'm sorry. I am very overwhelmed now. Dear priests/priesttess please help me out.
