--Blessings and greetings, my friend!

--Suppose at one time you did pray to receive Jesus as your Lord and Savior. Perhaps you even went forward at a Church altar call. But since that time you have wandered away from the faith.
--My friend, no one is ever outside of the saving grace of our Lord Jesus Christ. You need only to repent of your waywardness, and confess your need of forgiveness.
"If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive our sins and cleanse us from all unrighteousness." (1 John 1:9)


--Getting Back on Course
--2 Peter 3:17-18


--"Therefore, dear friends, since you already know this, be on your guard so that you may not be carried away by the error of lawless men and fall from your secure position. But grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. To Him be glory both now and forever!" Amen.

No matter how far away from God you have drifted, you're always welcome back. That's the lesson from Jesus' parable about the prodigal son--the foolish boy who followed a pleasure-filled path to ruin before returning to his father and finding redemption (Luke 15:11-32). Perhaps ruin has not yet come to you, but you know that your heart has grown cool to the things of God. Whatever your drifting story, make this the day that you point yourself back to the Lord.

You need to give yourself to God by acknowledging, I surrender my entire life to You now. When something comes up that runs counter to His plan and you consider pursuing it, the Holy Spirit will remind you that you are not your own. Jesus Christ has already paid your sin-debt on the Cross. Come to the Father, He loves you so much, He gave His Son Jesus to die in your place. "Without the shedding of blood, there is no forgiveness of sin."

Peter gives a warning to be on guard against attitudes and ideologies that would carry you away from truth (2 Peter 3:17).
Instead, choose to paddle your lifeboat toward the Lord by meditating on Scripture, praying, and living obediently. Practicing the spiritual disciplines keeps a heart warm toward God. Jesus loves you!
