I Must Have Misplaced It (Bonus)



Over the past three weeks, we have studied Solomon and how he misplaced his desire, love and worship.  Solomon allowed things to slip away and as a result, he changed.  When we misplace our desires, love and worship, we become people we never would have dreamed we could be.

Luke 15:8-10 NASB
(8)  "Or what woman, if she has ten silver coins and loses one coin, does not light a lamp and sweep the house and search carefully until she finds it?
(9)  "When she has found it, she calls together her friends and neighbors, saying, 'Rejoice with me, for I have found the coin which I had lost!'
(10)  "In the same way, I tell you, there is joy in the presence of the angels of God over one sinner who repents."

A pair of reading glasses, pocketbook, car keys, hat, letters, and important documents are all things we might misplace.  We seem to put them in places and their location slips our mind.

When we find those keys or the important documents or whatever it might be we are so relieved.

Desires, love and worship can also be misplaced.

When we find them, we can begin to regain the fellowship with God that has been lacking.

If you are not a Christian, I invite you to read the “How to be Saved” section above.
