Is God asking you to do the impossible?

Yes.

The short answer is yes.

Jesus said, “Go make disciples of all nations… teaching them to observe everything I have commanded you.”

That was written to you. And it was written to me.

Jesus expects us to go out and change our world. Make disciples of all nations. Bring heaven to earth. Transform our world. Change everything.

And yes, that is impossible.

And yes, it is expected.

How do you do the impossible?

Jesus, in the same context, provides the answer:

1. All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to Me (Jesus).
2. I (Jesus) am with you always, even to the end of the age.

Whatever assignment Jesus has given you comes with (a) His authority, and (b) His presence.

Put another way, you carry the presence of Jesus into your world. What has God asked you to do today? Be a mom? Repair a relationship? Share your story? Fix someone’s car? Pray for someone who is sick?

In whatever way you show up, you are not alone.

Jesus is with you.

Be encouraged!
