It is not uncommon for Christians to see themselves in the book of Judges. Not as one of the great and mighty judges, saving the people from their oppressors and pointing them back to God. Sadly, we sometimes can relate more with the people, who genuinely called on God only when they had to, when there was no other way out.
God may well bring you under severe trial to provoke that genuine cry of need. But as soon as the relief has arrived, what will you do? Will you continue in genuine devotion to God, or simply wait for the next disaster?
