Impossible Is Not In God's Dictionary

 

For He shatters

   the doors of bronze

and cuts in two

   the bars of iron.

...He turns a desert

   into pools of water,

a parched land

   into springs of water.

            Psalm 107. 16, 35

(God specializes

   in impossible situations,

even these crazy ones

     we are facing today.

If they were not difficult,

   if we took care of them

   with one hand tied

          behind our back,

    would we even seek Him?

Would we give Him the credit?

Sometimes God unlocks a door.

Sometimes He airlifts us

             out of the swamp.

Sometimes He gives us new shoes

                or a new heart.

Sometimes God provides a path

  through an impenetrable forest,

a way impossible to see

  and pass through without Him.)

O LORD,

Give us x-ray vision

that we would see past

   the bars and locked doors.

Help us to see in the dark.

Guide us through the desert

  right to a source of water.

And know it is from You.

No matter our circumstances,

  help us to trust You in this.

Bring about Your glory here

  in our very own impossible

        location.

You have placed us here

           strategically

to write Your name over it.

No matter what happens,

       Your glory.
