When our focus comes off Him, I believe it necessary to go back and reflect on the greatness of our Creator. He made us in His image. He is the source of our life. We are breathed into existence by Him. He loves us despite our flaws and although we stray, He comes after us.
We are His sheep. When a sheep strays, the Shepherd goes after the one lost sheep. And when the sheep falls, it cannot get back up on its own. Once the Shepherd finds His sheep, He holds the sheep, massages its legs, and loves on it. He then helps the sheep back to its feet, scolds the sheep for straying, tells the sheep that He loves it and still cares for it, and sends it back to the flock.
"Create in me a clean heart, O God, and renew a steadfast spirit within me." -Psalm 51:10
Cry out to God. Allow Him to begin to renew and refine you in His fire. He has the power to do it. He is strength in your weakness. And a shield against your enemy.
