Jesus said, “With man it is impossible, but with God all things are possible.” Matthew 19:26
My father in law, Robert H. Schuller said to me many times, “Anyone can count how many seeds are in a single apple, but only God can count all the apples in one seed.” I think of this quote often when I look at the world around us. I see senseless shootings, famine, poverty, political divides and I could go on and on just as you could with all the problems around us. Jesus said that in this world we would have trouble, but to fear not for He has overcome the world. What does God know that we don’t? The answer is, plenty!
Where We See Impossibilities God Sees Possibilities.
Faith is trusting that God will have the last word and that word will be good. Our job is to love one another, do what we can with the gifts He has given to us, and trust that God will guide our steps every minute of every hour of every day. This is the reason Dad Schuller also encouraged me to cut the word “impossible” out of my dictionary. I’ve done that, perhaps you should too.
