God’s “Impossible” Plan
I
n Luke, Chapter 1, the angel Gabriel comes to Mary and lets her in on God’s plan for her. As relayed in the King James:
And the angel answered and said unto her, The Holy Ghost shall come upon thee, and the power of the Highest shall overshadow thee: therefore also that holy thing which shall be born of thee shall be called the Son of God.
And, behold, thy cousin Elisabeth, she hath also conceived a son in her old age: and this is the sixth month with her, who was called barren.
For with God nothing shall be impossible.
We live still in an era where the impossible is exactly what we need, so this assurance that nothing is impossible for God still rings as true and hopeful today as it did 2,000 years ago. We can only hope that we might be as willing to participate in God’s possibilities as this young girl, Mary, was:
And Mary said, Behold the handmaid of the Lord; be it unto me according to thy word.
Happy Christmas Eve, everyone. Think today on the impossible gift God gave us: God in man, infinite power, love and purity in human flesh, ready to give his all to us. Think of the impossible possibilities.
