Lost

By Brandy Ferguson

 

“I once was lost, but now I’m found”….

 

You might remember the lyrics to that old song.  But what do they mean? It seems we’re all still waiting to be ‘found’.  In a world filled with billions of people, how is it that we sometimes feel lost and alone?

 

It’s a question from our heart – one that begs to be answered!  But most of us look in every wrong direction, until at last, we decide there is no one who can provide us with a feeling of home and belonging, and we stop searching.

 

There is good news for those who are still looking; good news for those who regularly forget the true answer – Jesus!  He is always searching for you, beckoning you to be near Him and trust in Him.

 

"And when he finds it, he joyfully puts it

[His lost sheep] on his shoulders and goes home.

Then he calls his friends and neighbours together and says, 'Rejoice with me; I have found my lost sheep.'”

Luke 15:4-6 (NIV)

 

Consider yourself found.  You’re no longer lost or alone!
