Let God Be God!

"And Moses said to the people, 'Fear not, stand firm, and see the salvation of the LORD, which He will work for you today.  For the Egyptians whom you see today, you shall never see again.'  The LORD will fight for you, and you have only to be silent." Ex. 14:13-14 (ESV)

We sometimes say that life is a struggle, or that we have to fight for what we want in this life.  And you know what, I will be the first to say that I struggled and fought to accomplish my goals!  But after a while, I discovered that I was tired!  

I believe that if we are not in touch with our Father, we lose sight of what we should be fighting and struggling for.  In fact, I would bet that we have fought for things that were not in God's will for us!

We find in God's word, God doesn't have a problem fighting and standing up for us against those that will oppose us and even for those things that are in His will for us.  Maybe it's time to let God be God and don't fear!  All we need do is what He instructs us to do in His word and see the salvation of the LORD!
