“For a long time Israel was without the true God, without a priest to teach and without the law. But in their distress they turned to the Lord, the God of Israel, and sought him, and he was found by them.”
2 Chronicles 15:3-4 NIV
Ever felt so far away from God that you think, there is no way back. “I’m too far gone from who I used to be” or “I’ve made too many bad choices and there’s no chance I can get back on track”, sound familiar? You know in your heart of hearts its never too late. Even if you start by talking to him everyday, just a couple of words. He’s always there, always listening and continually pursuing you.
I remember running from God, I knew I wasn’t where he wanted me to be and I kept ignoring him until an emptiness had set in and physically couldn’t keep my head above water anymore. It was then that I ran back to him and he restored all that had been taken away. The discontentment, the anger, frustration and confusion disappeared and I finally felt peace. It felt as though I was finally where I needed to be. I felt free, it meant that I had to give certain things up but I knew it was for the best. Decisions like these aren’t easy to make but if put him first and you’ll reap the fruit in the long run.
Ask for the strength you need and he will provide it.
