If the bible is your one and only source of ethics, wisdom and inspiration, then you must be a very shallow, short-sighted and boring individual.
Also, How do you reconcile Christianity's violent history, anti-intellectualism and rampant corruption with childish stories in the bible?
Everything "moral" that Jesus supposedly said is taught in every other religion yet just much more skillfully. Jesus is alot of hype.
You, yourself, as much as anybody in the entire universe, deserve your love and affection.
