Dingo Attack Awareness

In 2001 Ricky Megee woke up covered in sand in the middle of Australia. He was surrounded by wild dingos trying to kill him and he doesn't even remember how he got there. The last thing he said that he remembered was that he was taking a drive. After this he goes on to survive 10 more days of wondering around in the wilderness. He survived, but barely.
He ate raw leeches, grasshoppers and the occasional frog. Perhaps what makes this story so crazy is the fact he had no idea how he had gotten into this situation! He just woke up in the middle of a life threatening situation. There are a couple of quick lessons we can glean from this wild story. The first lesson is obviously, if you or a loved one suffer with memory loss and are planning a trip to Australia, make sure they check the area for dingos before you let them bury themselves in the sand.
Now on a more serious note, sometimes we may find ourselves drifting away from God. The scary part is maybe we didn't even notice. We just realized one day that our spiritual life had been neglected. Maybe it started when your job picked up? Maybe it started when you had gotten bogged down with school? You didn't have the time that you use to in the past and as a result you forgot to pray, you forgot to read and meditate. The good news is, God saw this coming! He knew that our spiritual lives weren't going to be flourishing all the time and He gave us a way back. God will forgive. Your spiritual life can be better than it has ever been, so just examine yourself. Look and see if you find yourself buried in sand. It's not too late! You may just need to remember.

Practical Help: "Submit therefore to God. Resist the devil and he will flee from you. Draw near to
                            God and He will draw near to you. Cleanse your hands, you sinners; and purify
                            your hearts, you double-minded. Be miserable and mourn and weep; let your                  
                            laughter be turned into mourning and your joy into gloom. Humble yourselves
                            in the presence of the Lord, and He will exalt you."
