Learning

I woke up early this morning, which is very unusual for me (like 6am early). Since I work night shift, early typically looks like noon. :) It is still dark outside and I sat with my cup of coffee and my Bible and was still before the Lord. It is such a privilege to do that. It feels so comfortable. I started reading through Luke. I sometimes forget just how life changing the Gospels truly should be to me. I didn't even make it through Luke 1 without God being faithful to speak. Vs. 37 "For nothing is impossible with God." I don't know how many times in Luke 1 it says this, but it seemed like the entire way through chapter 1 that is all I could read and hear. God does the impossible for Elizabeth and gives her a son when she was barren. God does the impossible through Mary and allows her to become a virgin mother, and to carry the savior of the world. God does the impossible and sends a savior who just by being alive and dieing saves the world from it's sin. God proved to all of the Jews who had been waiting for what must have seemed like forever that He would keep His promise and set them free. It just blows my mind that God is so much in the business of doing the impossible.
We got our official acceptance after turning in the formal application- one more impossible thing down. We also received our home study packet- I cannot explain the emotions, but they looked kind of like excitement and panic all rolled into one. The book sized packet looks impossible to me. I stared at it this morning after reading...I keep telling myself that this is not impossible for God. It feels that way. The enemy would love for me to believe the lie that it is impossible for us to have a family. He whispers that lie to me often. I now have a sword to cut that lie down with. "For nothing is impossible with God." Luke 1:37
