I have gone astray like a lost sheep; seek thy servant; for I do not forget thy commandments. Psalm 119:176
We are errant creatures. We constantly wander off, doing our own thing, getting ourselves into trouble. There's simply too much space for us to get lost and confused and turned around in. And, frankly, our sense of spiritual direction stinks...all of us. No one of us is exempt. Fortunately, we don't have to find our own way back to where we belong--God will come get us! No matter how far off-course you've gotten (and it may be nearer or farther than you realize), you are never out of His earshot; He knows where you've gotten to and how to get you back. You can't get too far out into the cold and dark for Him to find you; no pit of fear, guilt, anger, bitterness, confusion, or despair is too deep for His arm to reach you. He loves us. He longs for us. And He will come for us...anytime...everytime.
