being wrong stinks

Why do I always run the wrong way?
I make wrong turns.
Why do I look in the wrong places?
I do what I don't want to do.

I forget who I have faith in and I forget His mighty power! I forget that He is my redeemer. He can make mourning to gladness!

I run to friends when I am down.
I turn to my mom when I am lost
I look for joy in music
I let my mind carry me away from my Jesus

Then my Father comes and gently draws me back.
He speaks to me in simple ways.
He shows me my weeknesses in love.
His Spirit comforts me.

This week He spoke through a bulletin, the old kind that hip cool churches are trying to get rid of. (Don't do it) it simply said "we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ" just that simple and it hit me like a rock, a soft loving rock. Well then the other day I was sharing with a friend this blessing and we looked it up in God's word and the rest of that passage in Romans chapter 5 helped me imbrace that peace. God got my attention and well Romans is so what I needed. Chapter 8 verse 35-36 reminded me why we are here, "For His sake" WOW boy I have things wrong a lot of the time!

Thank you God for giving me your Spirit.
Holy Spirit, thank you for being my comfort.
Thank you for your Peace!

I just needed to pray to my Father in heaven
I need to turn to His word more
I need to seek His face and His Kingdom
I need to make things right with God so that I can have peace.
