When Abraham’s wife Sarah overheard three holy men tell her husband she would have a baby, she laughed. Laughed!
You see, Sarah had been praying for a baby for decades. She had prayed and wept and begged God for the blessing of a child, but no child had come. Finally, Sarah was in her old age–a grandma’s age, if you will. And to hear someone say that NOW she was supposed to have a baby after all of this time? It seemed impossible!
But the Lord asked Abraham, “Is anything too hard for the Lord?” The answer for Abraham and Sarah was a resounding, “no!” God DID make it possible for a woman nearing the end of her life to have a baby. And He can make it possible for you and me to do anything He requires of us.
Is there a commandment that feels impossible to keep? We can remember that nothing is too hard for the Lord to help us do! Is there someone we think we can’t forgive? Nothing is too hard for the Lord!
The next time you and I feel that what God asks of us can’t be done, we can remember that if we team ourselves up with the Lord, nothing that is good is impossible.
