I Feel Lost

Genesis 1:1

In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth.

Before anything else existed, God did. The same voice that spoke galaxies into being still speaks into your life today.

Luke 19:10

For the Son of man is come to seek and to save that which was lost.

Jesus still comes looking for lost people. Climb the tree — He knows your name.

Genesis 12:1

Now the LORD had said unto Abram, Get thee out of thy country, and from thy kindred, and from thy father’s house, unto a land that I will shew thee:

Faith starts with one step out the door. You don't need the whole map — just the voice of the One calling.

Genesis 24:27

And he said, Blessed be the LORD God of my master Abraham, who hath not left destitute my master of his mercy and his truth: I being in the way, the LORD led me to the house of my master’s brethren.

God answers the prayers you whisper before you ever finish them. He leads the one who asks for His leading.

Deuteronomy 2:7

For the LORD thy God hath blessed thee in all the works of thy hand: he knoweth thy walking through this great wilderness: these forty years the LORD thy God hath been with thee; thou hast lacked nothing.

Even the detours were led by God. Not one of your wandering years was wasted.

Judges 20:26

Then all the children of Israel, and all the people, went up, and came unto the house of God, and wept, and sat there before the LORD, and fasted that day until even, and offered burnt offerings and peace offerings before the LORD.

Sometimes justice costs more than we want to pay. But tolerating evil costs even more.

Judges 21:25

In those days there was no king in Israel: every man did that which was right in his own eyes.

Without a true King, every heart writes its own law. Crown Jesus in your life — and everything else finds order.

Ruth 1:16

And Ruth said, Intreat me not to leave thee, or to return from following after thee: for whither thou goest, I will go; and where thou lodgest, I will lodge: thy people shall be my people, and thy God my God:

Loyalty in loss is holy. Ruth's "I will go" is still one of the most beautiful sentences ever spoken.
