Lost {5 minute Friday}

i feel lost.
even on a good day.
and i am sure if most will admit, we all feel a bit lost.
even being a strong, steadfast, spirit filled follower of Jesus, i still feel somewhat lost.
why?
i think sometimes the tragedies of life can make us feel lost.
i think sometimes the mundane rituals we have reduced ourselves to can make us feel lost.
even though we are found - believers with an everlasting hope, there is still just a {maybe} tiny part of us that if we could be honest, feels lost.
not knowing where you are or how to get to where you want to go : unable to find your way - that is the definition of being lost.
and i feel that.
how do i get to where i want to be?
how did we even get here?
the word lost is the past participle of lose
did we lose our passion ?
maybe that is why we feel lost ?
we are stuck in a rut?
AW Tozer has a book called "Rut, Rot or Revival"
is that what being lost is?
in a rut, where your choice is to rot or be revived?
even on my lost days, i will choose revival.
even feeling lost i will still choose to see the hope of our calling.
sometimes it is good the experience the feeling of being lost, so you can move to being found.
and that is the promise, that no matter how lost i or you feel, there will always be a found

  1. Very similar strain to mine, and I think that loss of passion is a definite reason why we feel lost. Glad it's not only me. Five Minute Friday Friend
