Do you believe God can make the impossible possible in your life? I hope so. I pray so. I pray you have read the following scriptures and have been ready to have them speak to you.
In Mark 9:23 we are told , “Anything is possible if a person believes…”
And John 1:12 tells us that to all who believed Him and accepted Him, He gave the right to become children of God.
And again He tells us in John 3:16, “…For God so loved the world that he gave his only Son, so that everyone who believes in him will not perish but have eternal life.”
In the frigid waters around Greenland are countless icebergs, some little and some gigantic. If you would observe them carefully, you’d notice that sometimes the small ice floes move in one direction while their massive counterparts flow in another.
The explanation is simple. Surface winds drive the little ones, whereas the huge masses of ice are carried along by deep ocean currents.
And so it is when we are moved by the eternal depth of God’s teaching and God’s presence and God’s power - we are no longer moved by shallow, everyday surface winds. The shallow life is behind us and our lives now run deep.
What I am talking about is finding and holding on to, and giving thanks for, the best life possible. A new soul deep person who shows it in word and deed.
This can be you. It can happen if you don’t stand in a ditch of despair and allow yourself to wallow there and not try to lift yourself out of that ditch by persistent prayer.
It can be you if you don’t live in the shadows rather than in the sunlight and take up permanent residence there. But not if your eyes that once shone with hope and are now dull with hopelessness. And not if you are content to crawl rather than climb; content to slog rather than soar.
It takes a brave and unrelenting faith to stay on the high road. It takes getting up when you fall down, and though stumbling again, getting up again and staying up a little longer.
All the time echoing the Apostle Paul’s words right up to your last day on earth, “I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith.” (II Timothy 4:7)
That’s Paul shouting at you down through the ages that the seemingly impossible is possible, it sometimes just takes awhile. And that it does take persistent patience and prayer, lots of them.
