Wandered away from God? Followed your own desires and suddenly found yourself at a distance? Or totally rebelled and turned your back on God? Ready to come back? Forgiveness, acceptance, love, hope, compassion, mercy. This is your God. His eyes are on you, His arms are open, always hoping, always waiting for you. Limp or run, crawl or stagger, your God ALWAYS wants you back.

Help!

Dear Josiah, Thankyou for your honesty and prayer confessed to your brothers and sisters in Our Lord Jesus. I wept when I read it and believe the Lord weeps over you in your pain.... 'Delight yourself in the Lord and He will give you the desire of your heart', was the word the Lord gave to me especially at the begining of this year yet at times I find myself far from feeling delightful to God. I too make promises to God in my heart then break them, I resolve to be more disciplined then fail, I try to be more loving yet at the first sign of stress, forget everything I have learned from God, yet.....He will never leave or forsake me. Iam His child and so are you Josiah. And such a treasured possession to Him, never forget that. I am sure you have found encouragement from God since that heartfelt prayer as He is ALWAYS faithful, but if you need to be reminded of how He responds to us in our weakness, Psalm 31 is a good starting point. Keep praising Him no matter what and remember, greater is He who is in you than he who is in the world. Jesus Christ has overcome the world and our hope and life is hidden in Him, so we can sing.. "it is well with my soul"! God bless you and keep you very near, Your sister in Christ Jesus, with Love Naomi
