=========================== TODAY'S ARTICLE ==========================

Impossible?, by Tom Norvell

The movie Amazing Grace tells how the influence of former slave trader
turned preacher, John Newton, compelled William Wilberforce to dream of
abolishing slavery while Wilberforce's friend, William Pitt, dreamed of
becoming Prime Minister. In one scene, the two are discussing the
possibilities of seeing their dreams come true. Pitt has a plan. Side
by side they will make the world a better place. Pitt is confident and
persuasive. Wilberforce questions his friend on what makes him believe
that the two of them are the ones to change the world. Pitt responds,
"Which is why we are too young to realize that certain things are not
possible." Through their idealism and determination they pursue and
realize their dreams.

Can you remember a day when you were "still too young to realize that
certain things are not possible?"

Are you still too young? I hope so.

We need people in the Kingdom like Pitt and Wilberforce.

We need men and women who refuse to accept things as they are and
unwilling to settle for life as usual.

We need men and women who will stand up for they believe is right
and trust that God is still able to do what we think is impossible.

We need men and women to stand firm on what they know God believes
in, what God blesses, and what God wants.

We need men and women who believe that with God's help anything is
possible and that the world can be a better place.

Can you remember?

We need men and women who take God at His Word when He says...

"I am the Lord, the God of every person on the earth. Nothing
is impossible for me" (Jeremiah 32:27 NCV).

He [Jesus] replied, "Because you have so little faith. I tell
you the truth, if you have faith as small as a mustard seed,
you can say to this mountain, 'Move from here to there' and it
will move. Nothing will be impossible for you." (Matthew 17:20
NIV)

Jesus looked at them and said, "With man this is impossible,
but with God all things are possible" (Matthew 19:26 NIV).

Jesus looked at them and said, "With man this is impossible,
but not with God; all things are possible with God" (Mark 10:27
NIV).

"For nothing is impossible with God" (Luke 1:37 NIV).

Jesus replied, "What is impossible with men is possible with
God" (Luke 18:27, NIV).

Are you still too young to realize that certain things are impossible?

Chances are, if you already have not been, you will be faced with
something before too long that will challenge your faith and put this
question of possibility to the test. A relationship will seem hopeless.
Recovery will seem unlikely. A career change will seem improbable. A
dream will seem impossible.

There's a reason you're still too young to realize that certain things
are impossible: God wants you to make the world a better place!

Believe Him. Trust Him. Witness the impossible.

It will be amazing ... grace!
