Persuaded Life|Persuaded Life - Episode 17 Episode
We've all been through some hard places and seen some difficult things, but nothing compares to the pain and sadness of watching someone you love turn her back on the Lord or decide that he doesn't want to live his life God's way.
I, like most of you have experienced this kind of pain. And I'm here to tell you today that no matter how long it has been or how seemingly hopeless it has seemed, there is hope. Job 14:7-9 says, "There is hope for a tree, if it is cut down, that it will sprout again, and that its tender shoots will not cease. Though its root may grow old in the earth, and its stump may die in the ground, yet at the scent of water it will bud and bring forth branches like a plant."
It's not time for you or me to give up on those loved ones. It's time to get serious. These wayward loved ones are assigned to us, and we're to step up to the plate, hang in there, and do whatever we can to lead them to Christ.
