Lost

Lost… Destroyed. Wasted. Employed to no good purpose. Mislaid. Cannot be found… Forgotten.

This past week has brought many losses. Much was destroyed. Many things were wasted and made unusable, no longer suitable for any good purpose. Belongings can’t be found.

But the loss will not be forgotten. Ever.

Those who mourn their lost begin to count…marking the passing of time.

Jesus’ purpose in coming was ‘to seek and save what was lost.’ (Luke 19:10)

He is the One to turn to with our loss. ‘Salvation has come..’(vs.9)

He is Savior.

He is Redeemer.

Lord help the brokenness. Bring spiritual wholeness, a capacity to accept and continue…and an assurance that this is not the end of the story.
