You're Not Lost!
Driving down the street recently, I saw a bumper sticker which said, "Don't follow me - I'm lost!" The message startled me because I had been thinking about how many of our partners feel somewhat lost and at loose ends. Many, after serving the Lord for years, suddenly feel lost and can't see where they're going.
Do you lie awake tonight wondering, "Lord, nothing seems to be happening."? Have I gotten off the track? Have I wandered away from You? I feel so lost." These thoughts can come to haunt you in the night just when you want to serve the Lord the most.
Refuse to let the enemy use you this way. Instead, embrace the Holy Spirit's assurance that He is guiding your every step, whether you see it or not for the steps of a righteous man are ordered by the Lord.
"I will bring the blind by a way that they did not know; I will lead them in paths they have not known. I will make darkness light before them, and crooked places straight. These things I will do for them and not forsake them" (Isaiah 42:16, NKJV).
God's plan for your life is there, even when you cannot see it. You are not lost. He is merely bringing you into a deeper level of trust! Lift your hands to Him now and let a wave of relief sweep over you as you realize that God is in control.
God loves you and wants to answer your prayer. Say this prayer with me:
Heavenly Father, I thank You that I'm not lost...that you never lose sight of me and that my every step is part of Your perfect plan. I now sleep in perfect assurance that You are making the darkness light and the crooked places straight. In Jesus Name, Amen.
