Can you imagine the Israelites eyes when the Red Sea actually parted? Amen!
We’ve all been there, said that! When things in our life seem to start souring or it seems momentum has shifted against us we cry out “Why is this happening to me, why now?” It’s a tactic of the enemy. To take our focus and attention away from the end goal and focus on the here and now, to wallow in self-pity. But just like any contested sport, when you’re in the ‘middle’ it’s impossible to know how it’s going to turn out. Many games are actually won on the last play. Yes, you want to be victorious, but you must let God write the story and direct the action. He keeps His eyes on the end result – ALWAYS. The victory is great, but it's what we take in while we’re going through it that makes it all worthwhile. A joyful life is the sum total of all of life’s transactions, not just your current status, and when God finishes yours will be an ‘instant classic.’
Until tomorrow…
