There's much that could be said about regaining enjoyment of the Lord, so my comment might miss the mark. Maybe right now you shouldn't worry about huge theological issues like comparing God's justice in the Old vs. New Testaments; or God's sovereignty vs. man's free will; or questions like "Was brother Lee really the minister of the age?"
Keep it simple. You might try reading the gospels in a new version that only has the text, no footnotes, references, or other distracting items. A version in paragraph rather than verse form might be fun. Start with Mark and let the text draw you into the life of Jesus and the people He interacted with. When you get to know the Jesus in the gospels it won't be long before you start talking with the Jesus who lives in your heart. Who knows, maybe enjoyment will follow. Just my two cents from my experience.
