Hope for the Lost

Last week, I felt like God put it on my heart to encourage a specific group of people-those who have family and close friends who were once walking with the Lord and have walked another direction. I feel like God’s saying not to lose hope. For those of you who have been earnestly praying and feeling like nothing is changing, don’t give up! It’s not the end and God is not done moving! It can be hard, and it may feel like you are climbing up a mountain on your knees grasping for any sense of hope. It may be a long journey ahead, and there may be a rough path to travel, but I say to you: do not give up praying for those you love who have wandered away from the call of God on their lives. For those of you who feel there is nothing more you can do, I again say, pray. We can’t always see what God is doing, but I felt God told me to encourage you to not lose hope. Get on your knees, get on your face, whatever it takes, and keep praying. While the road may be difficult, God is our strength. Keep praying.
