God’s plan really is the best plan. 

It’s not gonna make sense. 

It’s gonna take longer. 

It’s probably gonna be out of “your” way. 

But His path is filled with miraculous, jaw-dropping stops. 

Now – I want you to visualize the miracle that happened the day God parted the Red Sea. 

The water slowly begins to part and forms two strong walls. 

Tall. 

The ground – dry. 

Firm. 

Can you imagine? 

And if they would have taken the much easier [11 day path] they would have missed it all. They would have missed being a part of one of the most miraculous  events that has ever taken place in all of history. They would have been attacked. Taken back into slavery. Maybe killed. 

I mean what did the fish do? Were they as shocked as the humans? I digress. 

I just want to remind you today that when the journey gets long and hard and down right miserable – keep going. You’ll never know the miracle that God has waiting for you if you take a different route. 

“Raise your staff and stretch out your hand over the sea to divide the water so that the Israelites can go through the sea on dry ground.” Exodus 14:16
