"But as one was cutting down a tree, the iron ax head fell into the water; and he cried out and said, 'Alas, master! For it was borrowed.' So the man of God said, 'Where did it fall?' And he showed him the place. So he cut off a stick, and threw it in there; and he made the iron float." (2 Kings 6: 5, 6)
We recently received a letter from a couple in Eastern Europe who are in great need. The amount of money which is needed is way beyond anything we have ever encountered. My response was, "I know that this seems impossible to you and me. Our 'resources' are just inadequate. Our Lord Jesus Christ said, however, 'With man this is impossible, but with God all things are possible.'"
Now the ax head incident may seem relatively small in comparison to other great impossibilities which are revealed in the Scriptures, but the Words of our Lord Jesus Christ still stand in the face of all the impossibilities which we encounter, "....with God all things are possible." Believe with me today that all of our impossibles are possible in Jesus Christ.
Father, in Jesus' Name, I bring impossibilities to you today, and wait to watch You turn the impossibilities of me into the possibilities of You. Amen.
When Peter, an 18 year old Norwegian, "heard the call to evangelize China, on that day he not only emptied his wallet into the collection plate, but included a small note with the words, 'and my life.'"
