Do you know someone who has abandoned their faith in Jesus? So do I. My heart breaks for those who once believed in Jesus and trusted His Word. They worshipped right alongside us as we gathered Sunday mornings. We served together in the work of the Lord. But along the way, something happened.
Main Points:
1. Sometimes the departure from the faith was the result of slow neglect. Over time apathy sets in. They no longer have the desire to serve the Lord. Eventually, they began to question their faith and what they believed, which led them to walk away completely.
2. I woke up this morning with a burden to pray for my friends who are no longer serving Jesus. I pray their faith will be rekindled. I pray they will feel God’s presence and long for the joy of knowing and serving Him. I pray the emptiness of a life without God, will once again be satisfied by the overwhelming peace of a relationship with Jesus Christ.
3. I must acknowledge there are people who were more godly and more spiritual than I am who have abandoned their faith in Jesus. Who am I to think that I could not fall away?
