Lost – What a powerful word!  It conveys an idea of having gone astray from a prescribed path or direction.  Wouldn’t it be wonderful to know that when we fail to follow driving directions or make a wrong turn that immediately a “search party” had been dispatched to correct our error and return us to our way?  Sometimes we are lost and don’t even realize it.  How much anguish would be avoided if someone corrected us, even when we are ignorant of our lost state?  From a spiritual perspective, this is exactly what God has done!  He is our spiritual GPS, always aware of our location, state of being, and direction.  More importantly, He Himself is the search party seeking us out and guiding us back onto the correct path.  I have heard many stories of survival with a common thread – the one lost never gave up hope because they knew they were being searched for the entire time.  No matter how lost we are in life, whether we are aware of our state of being lost or not, God is searching for us.  That is the source of hope that leads to change, to peace, and to comfort regardless of our circumstances.  That is the source of abundant joy.  We, at LifeCHANGE would love to help you find that abundant joy.
