If you answered yes to every one of those questions, I have
one more question to ask you…
one more question to ask you…
Do you believe that this seemingly impossible, incredibly
huge thing that you’re praying for right now God can take care of?

If you’re going through anything that seems huge and are
feeling pretty overwhelmed by it, I’m pretty sure that hit you in the face just
about as hard as it hit me.

“The Lord merely
spoke, and the heavens were created. He breathed the word, and all the stars
were born. He assigned the sea its boundaries and locked the oceans in vast
reservoirs. Let the whole world fear the Lord, and let everyone stand in awe of
him. For when he spoke, the world began! It appeared at his command.” Psalms 33:6-9
I don’t know about you, but reading that really makes me
stand in awe of Him. It also really puts my seemingly huge needs into
perspective. God is limitless. There is nothing that is beyond His reach and
there is nothing He cannot do. If God hung every star in its rightful place in
the sky, what makes me think He can’t answer myhuge little request?

My husband and I are expecting our first baby, and we couldn’t
be more excited! We were overjoyed at the news and overflowing with blessings.
But the closer we get to my due date, the more overwhelmed I become. I know
that God wants me to take off from work and stay home with my little one, but I
have no paid maternity leave. There is no way we can survive on one income, and
I have no idea where the money is going to come from. There are some pretty big
transitions God is laying on our hearts too, but there is so much unknown. I
just know what’s on my heart and what God is telling me to do. Yet, I look at
this in fear and think there’s no way it’s possible.

Rewind.
Do I believe God created the universe? Yes. Do I believe
that God created me? Yes. Do I believe that all God had to do was speak, and
things were brought into existence? Yes. Then why would I not believe that God
could cover maternity leave? Or provide and direct us in the midst of
transition? Seems pretty silly to me.

God is limitless. There is nothing that His hand cannot

stretch to.
Are you believing for something big from God? Does it seem
impossible that God could even make it happen? I challenge you to remember the
limitless God we serve. Trust in Him and He will not let you down.

Alessandra, reading this post brings me back to when I was also stuck in the almost the same position…I wanted to be a stay at home mom and we didn't know how to make it work on one income. Here I am staying home with the boys and He provided for me every step of the way. I will be remembering you in prayer about this situation.

LOVE this. Literally almost made me tear up. to make a long story short, I have this very harsh math professor this year and a lot of us are doing terribly. I cannot afford a bad grade because I am on scholarship. It looks so impossible now, but I have a peace that God is going to show me favor, that His strong hand is on my life. This blog was an amazing reminder to me that He truly is limitless, that He is not limited by anything. Hes bigger! Thanks:)
