Turn us back to You, O Lord, and we
will be restored.
Lamentations 5:21
Each of us is able to testify, about the great and wonderful things God
has done. The real question is, what He is doing today in our lives.
Somewhere along the way, we have failed to recognize the subtle changes,
which have caused us to drift off course. We attend church on Sunday and
feed on His word daily, yet somehow it continues to lay dormant and half
dead in our souls. Yes we need revival; each of us awakened and
restored, to the place God desires us to be. A place where the word of
God becomes alive and active in our lives, applied to each experience
and need, and deeply rooted. We must first repent of our slothfulness
and neglect, admitting that we are the problem, not God; asking Him to
once again make us the salt that preserves, instead of adding to the
growing decay. We are the light of the world and our life will be
different from the world and make an impact on the world, when it
reflects His light.
Prayer
Forgive me Lord, as little by little, I have not even been aware of how
I have drifted off course. I seek Your face and direction. Instruct me
and place me back on my course; purify my heart and help me to be the
salt that preserves and the light that reflects You. Amen.
