While reading through Luke, I came across this verse and it jumped off the page!
For with God nothing shall be impossible. Luke 1:37
This was a response to Mary who had just been told that she was going to conceive a child. She was wondering how that was going to happen since she was a virgin. Mary, like us, questioned God based on what she could see. On her circumstances. On her own wisdom. On how much she could understand. To Mary, conceiving a child without knowing a man was impossible.
We all have impossibles in our lives. The circumstances in our lives that seem, well, impossible. The things that we view that has gone beyond any hope of repair. We look at these things with no hope and that can leave us in a state of despair. The problem with that is we don't understand when God tells us nothing means NOTHING. What we are doing is putting limits on what God can do - oh, we have intellect knowledge that He can do all things, but deep down in our hearts, we still doubt. We doubt because we don't understand how He can fix it. Some things humanly speaking are impossible. We all have limited wisdom and we just have to get to the point where we have to look to God to do the impossible. To have faith that He will do the impossible.
What is your impossible?
