NOTHING IS TOO HARD
"Is there anything too hard for Jehovah?" (Gen. 18:14).
Here is God's loving challenge to you and to me today. He wants us to
think of the deepest, highest, worthiest desire and longing of our
hearts, something which perhaps was our desire for ourselves or for
someone dear to us, yet which has been so long unfulfilled that we
have looked upon it as only a lost desire, that which might have been
but now cannot be, and so have given up hope of seeing it fulfilled in
this life.
That thing, if it is in line with what we know to be His expressed
will (as a son to Abraham and Sarah was), God intends to do for us,
even if we know that it is of such utter impossibility that we only
laugh at the absurdity of anyone's supposing it could ever now come to
pass. That thing God intends to do for us, if we will let Him.
"Is anything too hard for the Lord?" Not when we believe in Him enough
to go forward and do His will, and let Him do the impossible for us.
Even Abraham and Sarah could have blocked God's plan if they had
continued to disbelieve.
The only thing too hard for Jehovah is deliberate, continued disbelief
in His love and power, and our final rejection of His plans for us.
Nothing is too hard for Jehovah to do for them that trust Him.
