So if I’m reading this right, and I’d like to think that I am, there were two main points today…
First, we have to have faith – the kind that is all-consuming, all-convincing, that makes you willing to take that crazy risk – in order for That Impossible Thing to get done. Noah had an ark to build. David had a giant to kill. What’s That Impossible Thing for you?
Second, we need to know for sure what God wants. Whatever God wants needs to be what we want, too. Our crazy risk will end up as just that – a crazy risk – if we’re out of line with what God wants. When we step out from under an umbrella, we can expect to get rained on. Knowing what God wants by staying close to Him and listening will keep me in the center of what He wants.
Two questions I need to ask myself about That Impossible Thing: is it what God wants? Is it really impossible for God? When I see my problem through His eyes, it doesn’t look so impossible. Even though I can’t figure out how it will get done or what it will look like, I can have peace, knowing God has it all worked out.
