“Return to the Lord your God, for he is merciful and compassionate, slow to get angry and filled with unfailing love.” (Joel 2:13, NLT)
“How far do you want God to go in getting your attention?
God does what it takes to get our attention. Isn’t that the message of the Bible? The relentless pursuit of God. God on the hunt. God in the search. Peeking under the bed for hiding kids, stirring the bushes for lost sheep.”
(from Grace For The Moment, by Max Lucado, page 226)

Today I am joining … Spiritual Sundays and Scripture & a Snapshot .
I’m so thankful for a God that stirs the bushes to prompt us to return to him!! May we all be quick to respond!
Me too! I loved that imagery! Have a great week!
I pray for certain ones to feel that pursuit of God in their lives.
Thank you for this encouragement.
Grateful this quote encouraged you. Let’s be faithful to pray for our certain ones!
