As Israel approached the Red Sea they were in a tight spot.  Pharaoh and his army approached from behind and the sea stood before them.  Their only option was to trust God and He saved them.  How often is it that we truly and fully turn to God only when we get to the point of seeing no other option?

Maybe we think we can handle life.  But after we have tried this and that and that again, the situation is unchanged.  Almost in desperation we turn to God.  Maybe we think that we or the situation is unworthy of God’s time.  So the situation persists.  In any case, God is always there and is just waiting for the invite.  This doesn’t mean we never suffer but it does mean that God will see us through. With God we never have to go it alone.

How do we get to the point of seeing God as our first option, as our only option?  It is through connecting daily in a personal way.  It involves making time with Him a priority.  It means every morning or every noon or every evening.  It is coming to know Him and being known by Him.  We really only trust those we know to be worthy of our trust.  God is worthy.  Trust Him with all of your life!
