Believing in the Impossible
"Alice laughed: "There's no use trying," she said; "one can't believe impossible things." "I daresay you haven't had much practice," said the Queen. "When I was younger, I always did it for half an hour a day. Why, sometimes I've believed as many as six impossible things before breakfast." - Through the looking glass, and what Alice found there
What are you believing for?
Just believing the possible is rather comforting. You know it can be done, and you have the strength to do it.
But the impossible, that will stretch your faith and everything you know outside the comfort zone, and will force you to depend on things beyond your control.
Unsure, you have to say things like, “I can do all things through Christ who gives me strength” and “nothing is impossible for God”.
The decision to believe the impossible can be framed this way: Peter walking on water.
The boat was taking a beating and was probably going to sink without intervention.
Jesus was on the water.
Peter left the comfort zone of the sinking boat and did the impossible by walking on water to get to Jesus.
I think the impossible brings the better rewards.
