The King of Second Chances
How many times have we tried to do the right things only to fall short. We fail again and again on our own. We let our pride and our own self sufficiency get in the way of the only one really in charge. We let worry and anxiety overwhelm us, instead of seeking God's face.
We may not want to admit we can't do it on our own. To many times we self medicate to cover the pain of life. This can take many forms whether it's drugs, alcohol, food, or unhealthy relationships.
Sometimes we falsely think we are alone, or that we are not worthy of help. After all, We got ourselves into this mess, It's up to us to get ourselves out of it.
What is that old saying, "God helps those that help themselves." 75% of Americans falsely believe this is a quote from the Bible, but it originated with Ben Franklin.
Remember you are not alone. Jesus is waiting for us to realize just how much we are loved. He longs for our return and He is faithful to forgive. He said, He would never leave us nor forsake those who love Him.
PLEASE COME BACK TO HIM.
