Impossible?

Before we start today,  I want to remind you… this weekend is historic at Potential Church.  For the first time in our history, our South Florida campuses will be meeting at one time in one place… the BB&T Center in Sunrise!  One free service… 10AM Sunday morning… I hope to see you there!  For more details about the service and the extreme music conference concerts, check out our website here:  http://potentialchurch.com/xtreme/

I was thinking about Pr. James’ teaching last weekend at our Cooper City campus and I kept coming back to the word he focused on… “impossible”.   Nothing is impossible through Christ.  Nothing.  That marriage that seems like there’s no hope.  Recovery is possible.  The low bank balance.  Replenishment is possible.  An uncontrollable teenager… a demanding boss… a medical setback?   All solvable.  All doable.  All possible through the One who promises that He will never leave nor forsake us.  (Deut. 31:8)

When we have no more stamina… He carries us.

When we are out of answers… He assures us that He has all that we’ll need. 

When the world tells us we’re nothing… He reminds us that we are more than just something.   We’re a masterpiece.   

His arms are strong enough for our heaviest burdens.

In 1 Peter 5, we read about God’s “mighty” hand!    No matter where we find ourselves today... God’s hand will be big enough.  He’ll cradle us with it when it hurts. He’ll provide for our needs with it.  We can grab it when we’re nervous and it will be there to protect us.  

Today, don’t live limited by what you can carry in your own hand... give it to Him... He is more than strong enough.
