Hebrews 6:18-20
" God did this so that, by two unchangeable things in which it is impossible for God to lie, we who have fled to take hold of the hope set before us may be greatly encouraged. We have this hope as an anchor for the soul, firm and secure. It enters the inner sanctuary behind the curtain, where our forerunner, Jesus, has entered on our behalf. He has become a high priest forever, in the order of Melchizedek."
As long as we stay connected to our anchor we won't go anywhere, however we are always free to let go of the anchor at any time. That is part of His love for us that we can choose to let go and not follow Him at any time. Sometimes it is a diliberate choice other times we may not realize we are drifting away.
Our connection can be lost sometimes without our even realizing we are letting go. How do we cut off our connection? We stop praying, reading His Word, stop going to church, stop meeting with other believers. Usually it starts slowly. When we see this happening to people around us reach out to them and try to reconnect them to the Anchor, because the current of sin is strong and will drag us further away than we had planned to go. We can help reconnect others by showing interest in them, being generous, not judging them, offering to pray for them and talking to them.
Our connection to the Lord is a bond of love. The Anchor is God's love for us and when we obey Him then He is faithful to fulfill His part. Keep running to Him and He will guide your steps.
Prayer: Jesus help me to pray about the difficulties I am having so that we can stay connected.
