Mission: Possible

And the Lord said to Abraham, "Why did Sarah laugh, saying, 'Shall I surely bear a child, since I am old?' Is anything too hard for the Lord? At the appointed time I will return to you, according to the time of life, and Sarah shall have a son." (Gen. 18:13, 14)

Hard. We all know all about hard. It's hard to juggle work, relationships, and responsibilities at home. It's hard when the vacation you've been looking forward to all year gets cancelled. It's hard when you miss a deadline at work or school. It's hard when a close friend fails you. It's hard when a grandparent dies.

Sometimes, when things are hard for us, we assume they're hard for God, too. They aren't. Nothing is too hard for God. His best stuff happens when all hope is gone. He parts the sea for people who don't have a way out. He gives babies to women who can't have any. He saves the souls of people who deserve death. Think about the hard times, the last second, the darkest hour, the deepest hole. They are "mission impossible" for us. Invite Him into your hard stuff. Every bit of it is "mission possible" for Him.
