“We must pay the most careful attention, therefore, to what we have heard, so that we do not drift away.” (Hebrews 2:1, ESV)
You do not wake up one morning and abandon your faith. It happens quietly. Almost unnoticeable. One day you realize you are far from shore. But how does the drift begin?
The danger of drifting is subtlety. You are not running from God. You are moving with a current you did not choose. It starts small. Skipping prayer “just this once.” Letting Scripture sit because life feels full. Community becomes optional. Each tiny choice moves the boat a little farther from the anchor.
Hebrews says to pay the most careful attention. Anchor yourself again today. Pray. Open the Word. Reach out to a faithful friend. Small obedience closes the distance you barely noticed.
- Prayer: Set 10 quiet minutes today.
- Scripture: Read Hebrews 2. Note one warning and one promise.
- Community: Send a message to a trusted believer and ask for prayer.
Lord, reveal where I have drifted. Draw me back to You. Anchor my heart in Your Word, in prayer, and in Your people. Amen.
