Amazing grace! How sweet the sound
That saved a wretch like me!
I once was lost, but now am found;
Was blind, but now I see. (John Newton)
Yesterday
I experienced my first trip through a corn maze. Prior to entering, we received
a generalized picture of the maze with the locations of the eight stops where
we could punch our card. After wondering aimlessly for a while and having found
none of the stations, we decided, in a near panic, that we just wanted to get
out. We finally stumbled across one of the stations and I found it on the map.
I was able to get my bearings and thought, ah, ha, maybe we can find the rest
of the spots if I just keep us on course. We found the next station, but about
that time the 17-year-old girl I was supposed to be guiding decided she had had
enough. “Can we just try to find our way out?”
Have
you ever been lost and just wanted to find your way out? Has life bombarded you
with situations that you just wanted to get out of? Did you feel you had nowhere
to turn for guidance?
We
all know where to turn when we are lost in the maze called life. Jesus is
called our Savior for a reason.
Lord, Heavenly Father, thank You for
sending Your Son to save us when we are lost and to guide us Home. Amen.
