Nothing Too Hard

"Ah, Lord God!  Behold, You have made

the heavens and the earth by Your

great power and outstretched arm.

There is nothing too hard for You."

     Jeremiah 32:17 (NKJV)

It's good for us to remember that whatever we're facing, nothing is too hard for God.  No problem is too big for Him, no situation too bleak, no need that He can't fulfill.

For me, it helps to remind myself that even all the small things are not outside of God's reach.  Last evening, I was feeling vexed because of a number of small annoyances and frustrations this week that just would not go away.  Then as I sat down to eat supper, I looked up and saw the beautiful sunset out my windows.  I stopped and just gazed at God's glory displayed in the rosy sky and the breathtaking cloud patterns.  That helped to put things in perspective.  I saw God manifested in the glorious sunset, reassuring me of His presence with me and in my life. 

When I start to feel like I'm getting caught up in the frenzy of this world, when my peace is fleeting because of the strife in our society, it helps to focus on God's creation.  The weather, nature around me, sunrises and sunsets, are reminders of God's sovereignty.  God is still on His throne and all is well with my soul.

My prayer is that you too will be reminded of God's glory through His creation and be reassured that nothing is too hard for Him to handle.
