imPOSSIBLE

He replied, “What is impossible for people is possible with God.” Luke 18:27

Last night we had a wonderful event at my school. Our FCA Chapter led a "Fields of Faith" event. This event was completely planned and led by students. Students gave testimonies of what the Lord has done for them. We had a teen worship band and a wonderful young lady lead us in great worship with her beautiful voice. An invitation was given to commit and recommit their lives to Christ. One of my students was the organizer. She was so worried no one would attend. She was letting herself panic and stress. Last night 598 people attended this wonderful event. That is the power of the message of the Cross.

Just like this student leader, we doubt the power of Jesus. We tout this wonderful faith we have. Yet, when pushed, our faith is so weak. We think everything relies on us. We just don't get it. We know the powerful message in Luke 18:27. Yet, we think that is for other people and not us. The power of the Cross is for all of us. IF we can just get to the point where we step back and let Jesus take over, we can see the impossible become possible. The God of the Universe can and does do the impossible for US.  All we have to do is rely on him. All we have to do is commit our lives to him. Focus on him and his plan and then just get out of the way. 

Dear Lord, I praise you for your power and might in this world. I see your powerful hand in so many areas of my life. I thank you for last night. I thank you for showing up for a bunch of teenagers in Garrett, Indiana. IT means so much in their faith walk. It means so much that we have young people that believe in you and will openly and powerfully share the gospel message to their community. I praise YOU Lord for doing the impossible every day of my life. Amen!
