Psalm 139:7-10   ⁷ Where can I go from your spirit? Or where can I flee from your presence?  ⁸ If I ascend to heaven, you are there; if I make my bed in Sheol, you are there.  ⁹ If I take the wings of the morning and settle at the farthest limits of the sea, ¹⁰ even there your hand shall lead me, and your right hand shall hold me fast.

 No matter where we go God is with us. God is there to help us make right choices. God will guide our steps if we trust him to do it.

Sometimes we feel like we are in a place where God will never find us. We have made poor choices; we have not asked God’s counsel; we have gone our own way. We might think that God does not want us anymore because of the choices we have made.

There is nothing further from the truth. God has never left our side. If we look for him we will find that he is already there. He wants us to turn to him. His right hand is there to guide us back: to make choices that are good for us, to make relationships healthy, to bring us peace and wholeness. Turn around…God is waiting.

Lord, help us to see your face wherever we are. Lead us back to you. Help us to walk in your ways. Amen.
