Nothing is Impossible to God

“With God Nothing will be impossible ” Said the Angel to Mary the virgin who was about to conceive a child by the power of the Holly Spirit. Yes it is true nothing is impossible to God. The Christmas season, more than any other season is a reminder of the fact that God is capable of anything. When the Angel said “Nothing is Impossible to God” he meant “nothing”.  He didn’t say except solving your problems, except healing your sickness, except opening the closed door you have been waiting for to open...we can go on and on. But, why do we doubt? Why do we think our problem is so special and God can’t fix it?

If a Virgin Can conceive a child and still stay a virgin by the power of God, If God Can send his only son to come as a human to earth, If the king of king’s could make himself so low and be born in a Manger because he loved us, If God can send the star to lead the Shepherds, so they can go see the new born king. If Mary’s Cousin Elizabeth could conceive a child by the power of God in her old age after every one thought it was impossible for her to have a child…If God can do all of these and more, why do we doubt when it comes to our own problems?

Let’s not doubt my brothers and sisters…Instead let’s remember Christmas the birth of our lord is also the birth of hope, It is the birth of Joy, the birth of salvation, the birth of peace and yes of course the birth of “Love” Which is the greatest of all, and no one ever showed greater love more than Christ himself.

This Christmas season let's make it a point to renew our faith in God who makes the impossible possible. Let's also bring the good news of Love, peace, hope and Joy to everyone we come in contact with,  for there is no better present ever given than those. And when we receive those presents, may our song of praise be as beautiful as Mary when she received the good news.  

                                                             

                                                              The Song of Mary

My soul magnifies the Lord,

And my Spirit has rejoiced in God my Savior.

For he has regarded the lowly state of his maidservant;

For behold, henceforth all generations will call me blessed.

For he who is mighty have done great things for me,

And holy is his name.

And his mercy is on those who fear him.

From generation to generation he has shown strength with his arm:

He has scattered the proud in the imagination of their hearts.

He has put down the mighty from their thrones and exalted the lowly.

He has filled the hungry with good things.

And the rich he has sent away empty.

He has helped his servant Israel,

In remembrance of his mercy,

And he spoke to our fathers

To Abraham and his seeds forever”

Luke 1: 47-54
