Your Red Sea lies ahead. Circumstances press from behind.
There is no escape. You can either allow it to paralyze you—or you can step
forward in faith. You can either try to control what you cannot control—or you
can release your fear to God. At the very edge of your Red Sea, you make a
decision. It is not only the edge of your Red Sea; it is the edge of yourself.
“When my way seems too hard, Lord, it really isn’t. You are with me. When my load feels too heavy, it’s not. You carry it. When my heart feels like it’s breaking into pieces, it isn’t. You are molding me. When I feel overwhelmed by the pressures of life, I’m really not. I’m at rest in you. You keep me in perfect peace when I trust in you, when all of my thoughts are fixed upon you. Letting go of who I have always believed myself to be, I reach for who you have created me to be. Starved for lasting joy and peace, I’m now ready to reach for the life and purpose you have chosen for me. Moving to the edge of what I have never had the courage to allow, I launch into the depths of what has been my uncertainty. One breath and one moment at a time, you form me, you fire me, and you fill me.”
