Sometimes it happens before we realize what's occurred. It's unintentional. We don't plan it. Lulled by the slow pull away, swayed by other things we start deeming more important, we wake up one day and realize things seem different. We find ourselves in a place we'd never intended to go.
The drift.
Happens.
Get your pen and paper... put your seat belt on
People change, their interests change, they drift in and out of various likes, dislikes, and pastimes. In fact, I would argue that every Christian has or will experience spiritual drift at some point in their Christian lives. Interestingly, the believers to whom the letter of Hebrews is addressed apparently were at risk of the very same danger! In Hebrews 2:1 the author of Hebrews warns his audience against drifting away from the Gospel. For them, this message was not only timely but necessary to protect them from a terrible fate.
This week's episode is to help you so-- spend some time reflecting on whether or not neglect and drifting are part of your life. If needed, take action to reaffirm your commitment to your family!
