Living in Impossibility

Don’t ask me why the title for this post, it just popped into my head but maybe it’s because we have all, at some point or another, found ourselves living in what appears to be an impossibility.

Have you ever experienced that? Faced with some insurmountable problem, something you desperately longed to be fixed? But how? Perhaps you’ve even tried numerous times. A broken marriage you can’t heal, unmended relationships, some addiction you’ve tried to kick, who knows, but no matter how hard you’ve tried you just never can seem to get it to that place of a “permanent” fix.

Ya, living in impossibility. It seems like such a loss doesn’t it? (and it’s here I’d like to take a very long pause because I think it’s when we get to this place, when it feels like all hope is lost, well, that’s what it feels like, a very long and silent pause). Okay, moving on! Living in “possibility!” because God is all about removing the “im” and He truly is… the God of “all possibilities!”

There is always a reason and a rhyme to everything He allows to come into our lives, and maybe, just maybe, when you find yourself faced with “impossibility” it’s because He’s hoping you’ll then turn to Him to be what you need; your “permanent” fix. For “happy is he whose help is the God of Jacob, whose hope is in the LORD his God.” Psalms 146:5. Happy? Yes, happy.

You see, even in the midst of adversity, if you keep your eyes on Him, then God can take your “impossibility” and remove the “im.”
