But Jesus beheld them, and said unto them, With men this is impossible; but with God all things are possible.
Matthew 19:26
As we journey through life, we will encounter troublesome times. We will have to make difficult decisions, and we will have to deal with life’s dilemmas. As Christians, this is becoming more problematic by the day.
This is very burdensome for us and our families to deal with. Sometimes it feels like the cards are stacked against us and no matter how hard we try, we just cannot win or get ahead.
When our problems become that big and difficult to deal with, that is when we reach out to God more than ever. That is when we remind God of His Promise contained in 1 Corinthians 10:13 which states, He will never allow us to be burdened beyond what we can handle, (Isaiah 43:26).
These are the times we should remember, we are not alone. God is with us every step of the way, if we stand by Him, (Footprints in the Sand). So while we may not be able to handle or fix that big problem alone, “With God all things are possible.”
- God can fix anything.
- God can build anything.
- God can accomplish anything.
At times, I think we tend to lose sight of that.
After all, we cannot literally see God’s presence, but we can see the world’s wicked presence. Every day, it seems like Christians are under attack by the world. We can see that, we can feel that, and the emotional and psychological effects it has on our families are very real.
Yet, God is more real, even if we cannot see Him.
Do not lose sight of that, do not forget that.

Sarah lost sight of that, and when God told her she would have a baby, she laughed as she was very old in age.
Do you know what God’s response was?
Is any thing too hard for the LORD?
Genesis 18:14
I suppose God probably says the same thing about us when we lose sight of that fact. Nothing is too hard for Jehovah, nothing is impossible for Him to accomplish.
Remember that, never lose sight of that, never forget that.
As long as we stay true to God, as long as we keep our hope, trust, and faith in the Lord and keep moving forward. God will be there for us when we just cannot climb the next hill alone. God is more than capable of giving us a little extra footing when life trips us up, so we can continue on the narrow path through life.
While the world and the problems it brings us may be real and troublesome. Remember, God is more real, God is the Creator of Heaven and earth, and “If God be for us, who can be against us,” (Romans 8:31)?
Ah Lord GOD! behold, thou hast made the heaven and the earth by thy great power and stretched out arm, and there is nothing too hard for thee:
Jeremiah 32:17
