god loves hearing me say 'that's impossible'

Picture
​I believe there are two words God loves hearing me say. He loves hearing me say: "that's impossible."

He loves hearing those words because they set him up to say two words he loves saying:

"watch this."

God is always waiting for us in the impossible because our God is a God of impossibilities.

I suppose because - at least in my case - we rarely call on God when life is good - when it's filled with possibility. If we do, it's not with the same sense of urgency and dependency.

God longs for us to depend on him.

If you think that makes God arrogant and not loving - just reflect for a second on how good it makes you feel when your kids depend on you. Or a friend. Reflect on how loving you feel when in the midst of their impossibilities, they turn to you. And you in turn can offer them hope.

God is a father of children depending on him - because God is a God who wants his children to depend on one another.

If there is one thing that defines impossibility - it's the complete lack of hope. And God's "watch this" in our lives - it's the gift of hope. It's handing us big boxes of answers we never saw coming to questions we thought had absolutely none.

Oh how God loves meeting us in the impossible.

Steven Furtick says, "you're only stuck if you stop."

God loves showing up in these impossible places in our lives, places where we are prone to getting stuck - and stopping - and taking our hands and saying, you don't need to know just yet where you're going, you just need to know you are going to keep going.

God loves showing up and asking, do you remember some of those impossible places I've met you in before? Well they don't look so impossible now, do they?

So I just need you to take my hand, God says. Take my hand as we take one more step.

And as I take this walk with God, further and further down this trail of impossibility, hand in hand, I can hear God saying under his breath:

"watch this"

And I watch.
