The Drifter
“Abram lived in the land of Canaan, while Lot lived among the cities of the plain and pitched his tents near Sodom. (Genesis 13:12)
Perhaps you have heard this old saying: There are three kinds of people in life….
Those who make things happen,
Those who watch things happen, and
Those who say, “What happened?”
Lot seems to have been a member of the third category. As you read about him in Scripture, you get the impression of a guy who just floated through life, taking the path of least resistance.
He never seemed to wrestle with difficult questions such as “What are the long-term consequences of this choice? Or I wonder what God wants me to do?” Instead, he lived for the moment. He never anchored himself to the truth of God and so was swept along by a corrupt culture to places he probably never wanted to go. Lot and his family suffered death, incest, and disgrace because he allowed the world to shape his life and determine his direction.
Are you drifting? Do you have firm convictions about how God expects you to live? Have you anchored yourself to the truth of God? Do you have some definite goals in view? If you don’t take specific steps to place yourself under God’s direction, you will turn out like Lot, one of those poor souls who gets into one mess after another. Your life will be a tragic example of what might have been.
People who drift without God’s direction usually end up where they don’t want to be.
What will it profit when life is over,
Though far away places I may see,
If, by going my own way and doing my own will,
I miss out on what God has planned for me?
Don’t become a drifter. Determine right now to stay close to God and make a definite commitment to follow Christ each and every day with all your heart and stay close to Him. When you do, He will direct every step you take – and you won’t “drift”. (Proverbs 3:5-6)

Good morning!!!
Thank You Jesus,
Salvation Prayer
If you don’t Know Jesus as your personal Lord and Saviour and would like to accept him into your life as your personal Lord and Saviour, Please say this prayer:
Father, I know that I have broken your laws and my sins have separated me from You. I am truly sorry, and now I want to turn away from my past sinful life toward You. Please forgive me, and help me avoid sinning again. I believe that Your son, Jesus Christ died for my sins, was resurrected from the dead, is alive, and hears my prayer. I invite Jesus to become the Lord of my life, to rule and reign in my heart from this day forward. Please send Your Holy Spirit to help me obey You, and to do Your Will for the rest of my life. In Jesus’ name I pray, Amen.
