PRECIOUS THOUGHT: TOO HARD!

Is anything too hard for the LORD? Genesis 18:14

This months's devotion deals with difficulty. Difficulty comes into our lives in different degrees and for different purposes. Some difficulty is to make us press into Christ and act on our ability to do all things through Christ who strengthens us. Some difficulty is to make us look to Christ and act on our faith that there's nothing that He can't do. What's too hard for you is too easy for the Lord! Either way, God's doing a work. So remember:

When something is too hard for you, It is a work for God to do! What a precious thought! Be blessed-

I told the Lord that life was sometimes more than I could bear; Then He replied,"You are to cast on Me all of your care."

I said,"The weight I carry is much greater than before." He said,"I've strength to carry you, your weight and even more."

I said I have some problems and there's nothing I can do; He told me,"I'm the one who's to perform all things for you!"

I said that all I face is an impossibility; He said,"I am the Lord: Is anything too hard for Me?"

Behold, I AM the LORD, the God of all flesh: is there any thing too hard for Me? 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 32:27&17
