The God we trust should be a living one.We should be able to worship him in truth and spirit,because he is truth and spirit.We should have faith in him as he has faith in us.He had faith in us and equally loved us to give his only son as a sinless sacrifice for our numerous sins.He should be a God who answers my prayer,comfort me when everybody leaves me because I am not successful and repeatedly makes mistakes that bring loss and suffering for others.He is my shepherd who will lead me to my coop when I disobey and go my way like the Prodigal son in the Bible.He will come to rescue me if I get lost but have faith to cry out to him.He is a God who will forgive me Seven, seventy times,If I repent in earnest.He is my Savior Jesus Christ I believe him with all my heart and love him with all my imperfection,knowing he is perfect and faithful in his love to me.

The prodigal son story represents those who leave God and when they find they are better off as a servant and return the father welcomes him with parties and a new set of clothes. The story that represents Christ coming to look for us as sinners who don't know better is the one about the Lost Sheep. I do think we should check with those who have left the church every so often because sometimes they leave because of hurt feelings and wounds can heal with the passing of time and all they need is a little encouragement to come back.

I am wonderfully feeling happy for you because you've come to know, trust, and follow God in your life. Truly, God is a living God. He's the creator of everything that we see in this earth, apart from man's work. He is our provider, our Redeemer, and our Saviour. I hope that we can be used of God for His own glory and honor. May you have a blessed days ahead.
