Our God is our Savior

     When you are living your life, you can lose your way.  You can lose your sense of purpose. You can become so tired that it feels like all you are doing is watching time pass you by. You do what needs to be done but the joy is not there. You do care to what is going on around you however you lack the interest and the motivation to do anything. You are at a lost to what to do because you have veered from your course and from the source of your very existence. It is the source that brought you your happiness and joy. It uplifted you when you were down. It gave your life meaning and hope. The source that I am talking about is from God himself.
    How many times do we get lost in life, many I believe. We may know a lot about the Bible and our hearts are for God however we will still lose our way sometimes. God will still need to seek us out so to bring us home. Our human condition is weak and we need God as our strength. When we find ourself separated from him our life begins to have little joy or direction. Without God in our lives our life's meaning will become increasingly cloudy as time goes by. We will go into a slumber state of mind until we seek him out again.
     Over and over we will repeat our error. We do not have to be to hard on ourselves. We are just imperfect human beings trying to do our best. We need forgiveness and understanding more than judgement and punishment. We need God in our lives to guide our way. We need his love. We need his light so to see through the darkness. Our God is our savior, we cannot live our lives without him. Lost we are without him but with him we are saved.

Isaiah 12:2 "Behold, God is my salvation; I will trust, and will not be afraid; for the LORD GOD is my strength and my song, and he has become my salvation."
Luke 19:10 For the Son of Man came to seek and to save the lost.
Psalm73:26 My flesh and my heart may fail, but God is the strength of my heart and my portion forever.
