"Unwavering"

"He divided the sea, and caused them to pass through; and he made the waters to stand as a heap." (Psalms 78:13) Not that this title has anything to do with me, because it does not, it is 100% God; God is the one who is unwavering in His love you His people; don't you know? I can't imagine what it would have been like to walk through walls of water; but as a kid, I did get to experience a little bit how it looked. We were all just very small children, how small I can't remember, but there were at least three of us there, so it had to be at least 1966, because my younger brother would had to have been at least four; I was eight, my sister would have been six, but our youngest brother was still to small to be with us. We were all laying just below the screen in the movie theater, watching for the very first time The Ten Commandments, and I will never forget the screen when the children of Israel walked through the Red Sea. I imagine it would be hard to forget it if it actually happened to me, but apparently the children of Israel did not let it convince them that God had their back. No sooner than a day or two later, and they were complaining about God bringing them into the wilderness because there were not enough graves in Egypt. The proceeding verses, again and again show how ungrateful and unfaithful His people were to Him, even though He continually kept performing miracle after miracle, sign after sign, they still needed more proof, they still needed more convincing. That closing portion of Scripture from yesterday, is one of my favorite verses when it comes to defending the cross of Christ, because those who cannot accept it, don't accept it because that can't; they have no clue, nor can they have any clue what that cross represents, not until they have experienced the Salvation that the cross of Christ provides. It is just as Jesus was telling Nicodemus, or Nic at Night, as I prefer to call him. Jesus told Nicodemus in John 1:3, "Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God." We that have experienced the cross of Christ do not need to be convinced of it's life changing power and salvation; but, what we do need, and continually need, is God's Spirit within us to keep our faith alive. If we base the finished work that Christ did on that cross upon our performance and our ability to obey, then we have no need to carry on any further. It is really not about what I can do, but what He has done, don't you know... "I don't want you to forget, dear brothers and sisters, about our ancestors in the wilderness long ago. All of them were guided by a cloud that moved ahead of them, and all of them walked through the sea on dry ground. In the cloud and in the sea, all of them were baptized as followers of Moses. All of them ate the same spiritual food, and all them drank the same spiritual water. For they drank from the spiritual rock that traveled with them, and that rock was Christ. Yet God was not pleased with most of them, and their bodies were scattered in the wilderness." (1 Corinthians 1-5) NLT
