It is so easy to get off track in life!
Vacations. Unexpected events. House guests. Illness. Difficult conversations. Sin. Sleeplessness.
...Things so common... but that so easily get you disoriented and off course.
Especially spiritually.
And it gets you wondering, "What is happening? And what direction am I supposed to be headed again?"
Well, whenever your find yourself in such a confusing place -- and we all end up there -- here are a few ideas to get you reconnected to reality and back on track.
1) Remember, God is sovereign and the world is not crashing down, even though you may feel like your world is coming apart (Ps.103.19).
2) If you've sinned somewhere along the way, confess it and move on. God wants you restored and well-functioning (1 Jn.1:9).
3) Draw near to God and he will draw near to you. As you spend time in quietness reading His Word and praying, He will bring clarity and direction (Jas 4:8).
4) Keep in mind... God's grace is continually at work so you would live in alignment with Him and carry out His plan for your life (Eph.2:8-10).
Getting off the rails happens all the time in life.
The trick is to get out of the ditch and back on track as quickly as you can.
