I was lost once, not totally to God, but definitely not tracking close to him and the flock. I always thought that he found me, but the truth is, he never left.
He was with me all the time, right by my side, I was just ignoring him.
Truth is he never leaves, we just have to reach out and we will find him rejoicing on our return.
God gave us every example of how he wanted us to honor and love him. Then he died on the cross for our sins. All we have to do is follow him through a very narrow gate. He is the Shepard who will guide us through it.
It’s one thing to follow the commandments, quite another to take things to the next level with these requests from God.
Become meek, a peacemaker, merciful, clean of heart … it’s a long list.
Let’s ponder on these spiritual instructions from God on this day when we remember all those souls gone before us. Particularly our family and friends.
