I will arise and go to my father.

Lk 15:18 NKJV

Nothing changed for the Prodigal Son until he said, 'I will arise and go to my father, and will say... 'I have sinned.'' His story ends well; yours can too, but you must: (1) Decide to take control of your life before circumstances or other people do. The solution begins with you. A new partner, a new job or a new house won't cure what's wrong if the cause lies in your own attitudes and actions. You may have 101 excuses for the way things are in your life right now, but what are you willing to do to change them? The prodigal's father didn't pick him up and carry him home, he had to do the leg work. (2) Face reality as it is, not as you think it should be or wish it was. The prodigal had to discover that the rules he rebelled against at home were essential to his happiness, that all the fun he thought was waiting for him out there, wasn't, and that he must acknowledge his mistakes and correct them before he could get his life back on track: 'Let the wicked forsake his way, and... return to the Lord' (Isa 55:7 NKJV). God will intervene, but only when you operate on the H.O.W. principle: Honesty, Openness, Willingness. (3) Act now, while you still can. The law of evolution says things evolve and improve on their own. No, certain things left unattended and uncorrected get worse, not better. That's so whether it's your health, your marriage, your children, your finances, or your walk with God. So, face reality and take action while you still can.
