A Key Called Possibility

A Key Called Possibility

I dug through generations of keepsakes in Grandma’s old trunk. It was packed full of adventures, challenges, good times, hard times and dreams for her future. Buried between the keepsakes was her well worn little black Bible that was the key to making her such an amazing woman.

I knew the Bible was what Grandma clung to, was the key to her faith and the key to surviving a future that so many times looked impossible to her. To Grandma, the Bible was the key to possibility in impossible times.

Don’t be afraid, for I am with you. Don’t be discouraged,
 for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you.
 I will hold you up with my victorious right hand.”
Isaiah 41:9-10 NLT

Each generation still gets caught up in their own day to day problems and challenges. When our great grandparents lived God worked personally in their lives and He still does today in ours.  Our God is faithful and the same today as He was from the beginning of time. He is concerned, compassionate and caring about every detail of our day to day life. His love endures forever.

God is the only one who sees the generations past and the generations yet to come. When we are concerned about our day, our future, the future of our children and our children’s children we can come and talk it over with God and leave it all with Him.

God’s Word holds the key of promise which opens the door called hope. A door held on hinges of faith and secured by the covenant of His love completely fulfilled by His son, Jesus Christ.

The Bible holds the ancient key for the possible by God’s promises of healing, miracles, signs and wonders to this day. God’s Word is the key to turning on a light of great wisdom to the absolute truth we can stand on and live by confidently.

As believers in this new generation we can boldly step out, march along and face up to every adventure, trial and situation we will face, knowing we never do it alone and nothing is impossible for God.

“Faith, mighty faith, the promise sees
And looks to God alone,
Laughs at impossibilities
And cries, ‘It shall be done.’”
From Springs in the Valley, by Mrs. Charles E. Cowman
