Impossible…But God!
It seemed impossible. . .
Mary could not
understand how God could use
her to be Jesus'
mother. According to natural law
it couldn't
happen. Her questions and doubts
were many, but her
surrendered heart was all God
needed. "Be it unto me according to thy word…"
It seemed impossible…But God!
* * * * * * *
It seemed impossible. . .
The sky opened with angel
light. "Peace on earth" was
sung to Jewish
shepherds whose country was
occupied by the Roman Empire.
Their fear was
evident but their
belief was stronger. Going to
the stable and
seeing the Saviour changed these
defeated men into
boldly joyful witnesses of the
Newborn Messiah.
It seemed impossible…But God!
* * * * * * *
It seemed impossible. . .
A star, defying the laws of
time and space, begged
further
investigation. Because they had made
the natural world their
study, the Wisemen knew
this was a miracle.
Leaving behind the old way of
seeing things, they
followed the star to Bethlehem.
The Creator was
found--just a child! Devotion and
worship were now
given to Him alone.
It seemed impossible…But God!
* * * * * * *
It seemed impossible. . .
The baby of that manger
growing into manhood: all God
and all man. Jesus, bearing our griefs and carrying
our sorrows, came
to his own, but they received
Him not. Then, the Only Begotten of the Father
hung on a cross
while angels stood with wings
folded in silence.
It seemed impossible…But God!
* * * * * * *
It seemed impossible. . .
Christ was dead.
The Promise of
peace and Goodwill toward men
was buried in a
heavily guarded tomb. For three
days and nights
hope was gone, but then the
Saviour arose at
dawn. "I am the resurrection, and
the life; he that
believeth in me, though he were
dead, yet shall he
live; and whosoever liveth and
believeth in me
shall never die. Believest thou
this?"
It seemed impossible…But God!
* * * * * * *
It seemed impossible. . .
God, the holy and just One, reached in Perfect love to me, the sinner, Not by works but by grace through faith, salvation became mine forever.
This same
invitation is offered to all:
"That if thou shalt
confess with thy mouth the
LORD Jesus, and
believe in thine heart that God
hath raised him
from the dead thou shalt be saved.
For whosoever shall
call upon the name of the
Lord shall be
saved."
It may seem impossible…But
God!
* * * * * * *
"But God commendeth
his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for
us."
Romans 5:8
