Possible Impossibilities

It has started. The Commonwealth Games. With all the whoo-hah in the media over the last few weeks, I didn’t think the Games would eventuate. But they have. Prince Charles has deemed the Games open. India came through. What the rest of the Commonwealth thought impossible, has become possible. Another perfect example of possible impossibilities.

Possible impossibilities. Your life is full of them: dreams that seem, well…impossible; situations that will never change; people who will never change; life-threatening illness; limited resources; and more. Impossible.

Here’s the good news: the impossible is possible. Don’t shake your head no. It is. And here’s how: believe. No five steps to success. No seven secrets to achieve your goals. All you have to do is believe.

The Bible is full of possible impossibilities, from David and Goliath to the resurrection of Jesus Christ. Jesus spoke much about possible impossibilities but He also lived them. He accomplished what was impossible all the time.

One day, Jesus was faced with a little girl who had died. The professional mourners had already arrived at her parent’s house and everyone had completely written her off. When Jesus arrives at her home He says to her parents, “Only believe.” Only believe, and you will see the impossible possible.

There must have been some pretty big believers in Delhi over the last few weeks because the media had surely written them off! But perhaps you feel a little that way. You might feel written off. Or you may have written off your dreams as complete impossibilities. Don’t. This is your time. Only believe. It really is that simple.

Be amazing.
