Getting Back on Course
No matter how far away from God you have drifted, you're always welcome back.
As with any sin, the first motion toward getting back on course is to acknowledge that you have slipped away from the Lord.
Then you confess and repent, which is like turning your boat in the opposite direction and paddling toward God with all your strength.
Pray that you surrender your entire life to HIM.
Every day we choose whether to row or drift. As for me, I choose to vigorously pursue God.
Peter gives a warning to be on guard against attitudes and ideologies that would carry you away from truth (2 Peter 3:17).
Instead, choose to paddle your lifeboat toward the Lord by meditating on Scripture, praying, and living obediently.
Practicing the spiritual disciplines keeps a heart warm toward God.
