Do you feel far from the Lord, yet long to get close to him? Get on your knees and start praying for him to cause you to return – he is your pathway back home!
Hi, I’m Joni with an encouraging word if you feel far away from God yet long to get close to him. Perhaps you’re trapped in sin and can’t seem to break free. Or you’ve been away from the Lord for a long season and you wonder if it’s possible to be near him again. Well, there were people in the Old Testament who felt that way; try as they would, they could not seem to make their way back to the Lord. But they offered a wise prayer. They prayed, “Cause me to return, O God, and I will return.” It was like saying, “God, I don’t have it in me, I’m not able; so please make me come to you. Do whatever it takes to make me come back where I belong!” Friend, am I describing you? Then start praying, “Oh, Jesus, cause me to return and I will return.” Because there is hope. There is a pathway back home. And it starts with getting on your knees.
