Nothing's Too Hard for God

The prophet records these words in Jeremiah 32:17, "Ah, Sovereign Lord, you have made the heavens and the earth by your great power and outstretched arm.  Nothing is too hard for you."  In a world full of hopelessness people need to know that whatever struggle they face today, it is not too difficult for God.  If you know the God of the Bible, who revealed himself through his Son, Jesus Christ, then you know that there is absolutely nothing too hard for him.  Today I have been meditating on his amazing grace.  We sang the old hymn in worship this morning, "Amazing grace, how sweet the sound, that saved a wretch like me.  I once was lost, but now I'm found, was blind but now I see."

 Paul wrote in 1 Timothy 1:14-16:

The grace of our Lord was poured out on me abundantly, along with the faith and love that are in Christ Jesus.  Here is a trustworthy saying that deserves full acceptance:  Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners - of whom I am the worst.  But for that very reason I was shown mercy so that in me, the worst of sinners, Christ Jesus might display his unlimited patience as an example for those who would believe on him and receive eternal life.

Today I want you to know that God loves you and extends his amazing grace to you.  He can and will forgive you, even though you may have trouble forgiving yourself.  There simply is "nothing too hard for God."
