“If you repent, I will restore you,” said the Lord through Jeremiah. Repentance is turning away from sin to the Lord’s ways.

When a teenager, I witnessed a head-on crash as a vehicle going the wrong direction [two drunks on New Year’s Eve] killed an entire family on a freeway. Their car went right past us and ended the innocent lives of two parents and five children.

Going the wrong direction has consequences. Also, alcohol and driving are a deadly combination.

DAILY PRAYER: Lord, we turn to you. Protect us from the devastation of sin. Restore us and keep us headed in the right direction on every issue of life.

DAILY READING: Jeremiah 14-16
