Faith is rooted in confounding impossibility.
Faith reaches to the place beyond our understanding.
Abraham was promised the naturally impossible, as with Joseph, David, Hannah. It reaches out toward the mystery of God's goodness and says yes, let it be done for me, although i do not understand I will keep the word and steadfastly believe.
If we restrict our faith to the level of our understanding, are we still people of faith? We are exhorted not to trust our understanding but in God alone.
Paul was put many times in grave danger which was beyond his ability to counter so that he might not trust in himself but God who is able to deliver.
Let us lean our souls hard on this rock of God that can never fail and prove ourselves people of like rugged faith.
Faith holds the mystery and remains unwavering and strong.
1 tim 3:9 They must hold the mystery of the faith with a clear conscience.
If your Christianity only holds to the possible then it is too timid an animal to resemble the lion-like qualities of faith. slay it at once and reach out for His greatness for the world around you.
God of all my mountains I look to you knowing that you are greater and rejoicing inwardly in all your help to move them all for your glory.
