There is no doubt about it, I’ve struggled with my faith. I’ve drifted and wandered. I’ve been lost and confused. Somehow though, I’ve always been guided back to the light. Back to the love. Back to the warm embrace of my Father, safe in his arms. This is love. That he be welcoming when I have hurt him so much. He is always waiting for me on the other side of my confusion.

Like anyone, I have my flaws. My short comings. My doubts. These have caused my feet to drift from the Lord. All I can say is how great is he, that he should be welcoming and love me through it all? This is not an excuse to wander, no. This is a gift to not be taken lightly. All I can do it strive to be the best me I can be and thank him for the opportunity to serve and show how much he means to me. This is a gift. This is a blessing. This is love.
