Let me tell you about the most lost I\u2019ve ever been — more than once or twice! Picture this: new city, unfamiliar streets, and me, utterly convinced I could find my way back home without asking for directions. Spoiler alert: I missed my road home each time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I had just moved to the metropolis of Frisco, Texas. The other time I had just moved to the bustling megacity of Austin. I decided to head out with my trusty GPS as my official guide. Bad idea.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Minutes turned into hours as I circled the same blocks, each turn leaving me more bewildered than the last. I felt like a contestant on a twisted game show called “Lost — Needs to be Found”!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Each of those times — it was new friends, new city, new location, and a deep sense of being unanchored. What had been familiar and a comfort zone, made me feel like I had lost my footing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Losing my footing made me feel like I\u2019d lost a part of myself. How could I ever get back to feeling secure?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Unanchored. That\u2019s how I felt. But never should we stop at lost! We follow the trail of crumbs guiding us home. Those times of navigating myself through a new city was handedly done by my GPS aka my Anchor \u2013 my God!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
God, our Anchor, is our home. Anchored. That’s the answer with God. He is our home. He is our constant that keeps us steady.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
When everything else changes, Jesus is the same yesterday, today, and forever (Hebrews 13:8). In Him, we find our true home.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Home is where the heart is, and for those of us who are believers, our heart is hidden with Christ in God (Colossians 3:3). There\u2019s only surrender, trusting that God has us securely anchored.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Change is normal, but God keeps us in perfect peace when our minds are stayed on Him. Abide in that peace, in that home, anchoring ourselves in God\u2019s eternal embrace.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
So, no matter how lost you may feel, remember this: God is our home. And with Him, we are always found.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
