Be Still . . .
Devotionals for Daily Living ©
Ah, Sovereign LORD, you have made the heavens and the earth by your great power and outstretched arm. Nothing is too hard for you.
(Jeremiah 32:17 (NIV))
Did you catch that last sentence?
Nothing is too hard for you.
Are there things in your life that you think are beyond God’s ability to help? Are there things in your life that you think that even God cannot turn the situation around?
Nothing is too hard for God!
If you believe that there are things that God cannot do, then the god that you worship is not the God of the Bible. The god that you worship is one of your own creation and since you created him, he is limited in what he can do.
You need the God that created you!
I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made;
your works are wonderful,
I know that full well.
(Psalms 139:14 (NIV))
Can you praise a god of your own creation and expect it to do what the one, true God can do?
I want you to repeat after me – “God, nothing is too hard for You!”

Devotionals for Daily Living
But you, Lord, are a compassionate and gracious God, slow to anger, abounding in love and faithfulness.
(Psalms 88:15 (NIV))
Everyone in the world has an image of how they see God!
Some see an angry old man. Some see a vindictive character. Others see someone who just doesn’t care about us, while others see Him as someone who takes great joy in each of us. Even atheists, who claim that He doesn’t exist, have a mental image of Him, or should I say the absence of Him, for it takes a very vivid imagination to claim that He doesn’t exist.
What is your image of God?
Is you image of God distorted by the characteristics that your earthly father displayed?
Do you find it difficult to believe that someone who created everything that exists knows you intimately? We are told that He does!
For you created my inmost being;
you knit me together in my mother’s womb.
I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made;
your works are wonderful,
I know that full well.
(Psalm 139:13-14 (NIV))
When you think of God, do you see Him in this manner?
Is this how you know the Lord?
