Come Home. He is waiting for you!

I know strong Christians who were raised in church. Some have told me that even though they were raised in church, they really were not committed Christians. As they grew up, they left the church family to pursue their dreams and desires. However, at some point in their lives, they realized the error of their ways, and turned to God wholeheartedly. They found “their own faith in God.” It was no longer their parent’s faith only. Yes, in life you may struggle with your faith. You might have gone astray. But always remember, the Father is waiting for you with open arms. He loves you more than you’ll ever know. He is waiting for you to come home. Today is that perfect day. Allow the Holy Spirit to lead the way. The Lord already cleared the way for you. Come, let’s worship the Lord together!

Psalms 119:67Before I was afflicted I went astray, But now I keep Your word.”

Could you comprehend this love?

The Scriptures declare that without faith, we cannot please God (Hebrews 11:6). Faith is a necessary component of our walk with God. However, the Scriptures also state the Faith works by love (Galations 5:6). So as important as faith is, without love, our faith is powerless. 1 Corinthians 13:13 states “And now abide faith, hope, love, these three; but the greatest of these is love”. God loves us with an never-ending love. His love is perfect. His love reaches out to us even when we don’t realize it. In the parable of the prodigal son (Luke 15:11), the Father had been waiting for His lost son, and had been wanting His son to return back home. When his son came back, defeated, dirty and smelling like pig food, the Father ran to him and hugged him. He restored His son back to His home and  authority. This parable describes God’s love for us. The Lord Jesus told us that when we pray, we should begin the prayer by saying “Our Father.” We are His children and He loves us more than we’ll ever know. Never forget, even in the midst of all your “busyness,” God, your Heavenly Father loves you and is waiting to fellowship with you. Never be too busy for your Heavenly Father!

Ephesians 2:4-6But God, who is rich in mercy, because of His great love with which He loved us, even when we were dead in trespasses, made us alive together with Christ (by grace you have been saved), and raised us up together, and made us sit together in the heavenly places in Christ Jesus”
