The Grace of Mistakes
For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, and all are justified freely by his grace through the redemption that came by Christ Jesus.—Romans 3:23–24 (NIV)
And when he finds it, he joyfully puts it on his shoulders.—Luke 15:5 (NIV)
In the parable of the Lost Sheep, the shepherd leaves his flock to find the one that is lost. When you feel alone and distant from God, know that it is never too late to turn to Him. He has compassion for those who are lost. In the words of James 4:8, “Draw near to Him and He will draw near to you.”
Jesus, when I have lost sight of where I am and where my life is going, help me find direction. Guide my steps and thoughts. Give me peace.
