Turn to God

You have rejected me, but when you’re in trouble, you cry to me for help. ~ Jeremiah 2:27b (CEV)

Don’t you know that the reason God is good to you is because he wants you to turn to him? ~ Romans 2:4b (CEV)

KEY IDEA:
Those who recognize God's overwhelming kindness turn to him instead of turning their backs on him.
PRAYER:
Kind and gracious God, you patiently pour out your kindness on undeserving people like me. Yet so often we turn elsewhere to find significance and to deal with the problems that come our way. Could it be that I am covering my eyes so that I don't really see how gracious you are? I need to have a fresh encounter with your grace so that my eyes are more fully opened and I can more completely turn to you. I need to see Jesus. Amen.
