Return to Me – Thoughts by Vonette Bright
“..for this my son was dead and is alive again; he was lost and is found.’ And they began to be merry.” Luke 15:24
Lisa was dating a man who didn’t believe in Christ as she did.
Instead of breaking off the relationship, she gradually pulled away from God.
Within two years, the man broke up with Lisa.
She was tempted to believe that life was no longer worth living.
“But,” Lisa admitted, “if anyone understands, it’s God.”
So she returned to church.
She prayed and cried through most of the service.
An old friend listened as Lisa unfolded the past two years.
The friend responded with the story of the prodigal son and reassuringly added,
“God the Father is so glad you’re back!”
Dear one, have you taken a step away from God?
Return to Him.
Your heavenly Father will welcome you back with open arms.
