Fulfilling Dreams
Is anything to hard for the Lord? (Genesis 18:14)
This is God's loving challenge to you and me each day. He wants us to think of the deepest, highest, and worthiest desires and longs of our hearts. He wants us to think of those things that perhaps were desires for ourselves or someone dear to us yet have gone unfulfilled for so long that we now see them as simply lost desires. And God urges us to think of even the one thing that we once saw as possible but have given up all hope of seeing fulfilled in this life.
That very thing, as long as it aligns with what we know to be his expressed will--as a son was to Abraham and Sarah - God intends to do for us. Yes, if we will let Him, God will do that very thing, even if we know it is such an utter impossibility that we would simply laugh at the absurdity of anyone ever suggests it could come to pass.
"Is anything too hard for the Lord?" No, nothing is too difficult when we believe in Him enough to go forward doing His will and letting Him do the impossible for us. Even Abraham and Sarah could have blocked God's plan if they had continued to disbelieve.
The only thing too hard for the Lord is our deliberate and continual disbelief in His love and power, and our ultimate rejection of His plans for us. Nothing is impossible for Yahweh to do for those who trust Him. from Messages for the Morning Watch; Steams in the Desert Nov. 5.

Treasured Seasons
Treasured
Seasons
For
everything there is an appointed season.
And
a time for everything under heaven-
A
time for sharing.
A
time for caring.
A
time for loving.
A
time for giving:
A
Time for remembering.
a time for parting. You have made everything
beautiful in its time for everything You do remains forever.
