The Drifter

We must pay the most careful attention, therefore, to what we have heard, so that we do not drift away. Hebrews 2:1

When you hear the word drifter what comes to mind? A person without roots perhaps going from town to town never settling anyone place with no real root system. A tumble weed of sorts being tossed to and fro in the dessert winds. 

As a believer you need to insure you do not become a spiritual drifter unsure of anything in life and wandering aimlessly around. The world can throw lots of confusing choices at you but if you are not grounded in God’s word it is easy to drift off into false teaching, wrong activities, polluted thinking. Don’t let yourself become a victim. 

The moment you start having a day when you just don’t ‘feel’ God is around don’t escape into the world’s form of life believing lies and becoming hardened in your heart. Pick up God’s word and let it get down deep into your soul. Turn on some uplifting praise and worship music. Get excited about Jesus. Run fast and far from your drifter lifestyle into the arms of your Heavenly Father. 

PRAYER: Oh Lord You are beautiful. Your face is all I seek. When I become tempted to drift away pull me back and crush the stronghold of wrong thoughts and actions. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
