It is a Beautiful Monday morning! The golden sunshine is streaming through the windows and glistening on the snow covered ground! My heart sings with the Psalmist -- "Let every thing that hath breath praise the Lord." Amen! What a blessed privilege it is to praise the Lord and thank Him for His manifold blessings! How sweet it is to love and serve Him!
In Jeremiah 32:17, we read these wonderful words: "Ah Lord God! behold, Thou hast made the heaven and the earth by thy great power and stretched out arm, and there is nothing too hard for Thee." I am thankful that there is nothing too small in our lives for the Lord to be interested in, as well as the blessing of knowing there is nothing too hard for Him. II Chronicles 16:9 says:
"For the eyes of the Lord run to and fro throughout the whole earth, to shew Himself strong in the behalf of them whose heart is perfect toward Him."
In response to Jeremiah's great statement of faith, the Lord gave him the assurance he sought, for the Word of God says the word of the Lord came unto Jeremiah, saying: "Behold, I am the Lord, the God of all flesh: is there anything too hard for me?" Isn't that a thrilling verse!!
God, who made the sea, could roll back its waters to enable His people to pass through its midst unharmed (Exodus 14:29). He, who made the earth, could cause the earth to cease its rotation to give His people victory (Joshua 10:12-14).
We can be confident that our problems are no more difficult for God than those of 600 B.C. May we be careful to have trusting and obedient hearts in both the great problems and the small problems of life. Remember -- our wonderful Lord delights in transforming the hard things of life into the wonderful works of God!
