All things are possible

Good morning! God is good all the time, all the time God is good!

You say, "It is impossible!"

God says, "All things are possible!"

Verify: Luke 18:27 "

Jesus had just talked to the rich young man about entering the kingdom of God. Luke 18:26-30 "Those who heard this said, "Then who in the world can be saved?" He (Jesus) replied, "What is impossible for people is possible with God." Peter replied, "We've left our homes to follow you." "Yes," Jesus replied, "and I assure you that everyone who has given up house or wife or brothers or parents or children, for the sake of the Kingdom of God, will be repaid many time over in this life, and will have eternal life in the world to come."

Peter and the other disciples had paid a high price - leaving their homes and jobs - to follow Jesus. But Jesus reminded Peter that following him has its benefits as well as its sacrifices. Any believer who has had to give up something to follow Christ will be repaid in this life as well as in the next.

For example, if you must give up your family's approval, you will gain the love of the family of God. The disciples had begun to pay the price of following Jesus, and he said they would be rewarded. Don't dwell on what you have given up; think about what you have gained and give thanks for it. You can never outgive God.

Thank you for reading with me today. Love you all.

In Christ's Love and Grace
