Two Waters, One God: Learning to Trust His Different Ways

There are moments in life when we are standing at the edge of something impossible.

And in Scripture, we see this twice—
once at the Red Sea, and once at the Jordan River.

Both times, God made a way.
Both times, His people walked on dry ground.
But the way He moved was completely different.

At the Red Sea, God moved before they did.
He made a way where there was none.

But at the Jordan River, God asked them to step first—
into uncertain, overflowing waters—
before the miracle came.

And I believe this speaks directly to the seasons we walk through today.

Sometimes God clears the path so clearly, we can’t miss it.
And other times… He invites us into a deeper kind of faith—
the kind that requires a step before we see.

I share how this has been unfolding even in my own life—
through something as unexpected as learning to play golf,
and how small adjustments, a teachable heart, and simple obedience
can open the door to growth we didn’t even realize we needed.

Maybe you’re in a Red Sea season.
Or maybe you’re standing at the edge of a Jordan River moment.

Either way, God is still speaking.
He is still moving.
And He is still making a way.

Listen to this week’s episode of Small Beginnings with Sara
and be encouraged to trust Him—
whether He’s parting the waters ahead of you…
or inviting you to step in first.
