Jesus won the victory

"... they looked toward the desert, and there was the glory of the Lord appearing in the cloud."

Exodus 16:10

We think of the desert as hopelessness, despair, fear, darkness, rage, anger, let-down, gloom... hell.  However, it is time to change our thinking, it is time to look at the desert through the eyes of our heart; through the eyes of the Spirit of God - Jesus.  Jesus conquered hell for us and he gave us the power to do the same.  Therefore, stand and look at the desert before you;  smile big and bold, and know that you know this: Gods glory is in the midst of it, waiting for you to see it, grab it, and glorify his name with it.

God will never give up on you

“… you in your amazing compassion didn’t walk off and leave them in the desert…” +Nehemiah 9:16-19, MSG

God will never leave you or forsake you no matter how badly you’ve messed up!.  You are loved, and God is waiting, with open arms, for you to run to him.
