SEEDS i
FROMl
THE Y
SOWER
'-lLh.,1 V Guik-.
God often brings a
difficult situation into our
lives so He can turn it into
a delightful memory so
we can remind ourselves
of His love and mercy.
Often when we face an
impossible dilemma, He
turns it into a blessing that
will provide a story of His incredible power that we can share with
our children. There are times when He turns overwhelming
obstacles into great opportunities to demonstrate His power and
terrible times and trials into triumphs and testimonies of His strength.
David wanted to remind the children of God about the greatness
of God and wrote, “He turned the sea into dry land (and) they passed
through the waters on foot - come let us rejoice in Him!’’
The children of Israel were on their way to the Promised Land.
When they came to the coast, they made their camp. Suddenly
they turned around and saw their enemy coming to destroy them.
Before them was the sea. Behind them was their enemy. When
they looked at their options, they came to the conclusion that they
would either drown or be destroyed. But God was there.
And as He was with them He is with us! God is always between
His children and the catastrophes of life. He never abandons us
when we face the difficult decisions or demands of life.
If God could turn the sea into dry land and if the children of Israel
were able to pass through the waters on foot, He can do the same
for us today. With problems before us and danger behind us He
can deliver us.
