Ask yourself these questions, "Has anything ever been more important to me than God? Have I ever lied (a lie is a lie, no matter how small you may think it is), stolen (cheated on a test, took a piece of gum, etc.), hated (the Bible says it's murder in your heart), lusted, (the Bible says it's adultery in your heart), taken the Lord's name in vain (such as "OMG!!!"), dishonored my parents, or been jealous of someone else's belonging?" The Bible says that we have all sinned, and that if you've broken one commandment, it is the same as breaking all of the commandments (the whole law).
All sin deserves punishment, and God is a just God.
He should give you what you deserve

He wants you to forgive others as you have been forgiven, love others as you are loved, and help others as Jesus also helps you. , Be assured that evidence of receiving the Holy Ghost is that He makes you holy, and gives you gifts according to His own will (see 1 Corinthians 12)! , Pray daily:
Praying is vital and essential
