Doing the Impossible

Have you ever felt that your trying to achieve the impossible?
That the brick wall you have tried to break down for the past 10 years is still intact and impassable?

It's like a new bible college graduate brimming with new and fantastic ideas on doing ministry, who them finds themself at one of many churches with the view of 'we have always done it this way' or ' I've been at this church for such and such years and it has never been an issue until you raised it up' so why change?

Another thing that's been on my mind of late is the truth about explaining what Sin is, the bondage that it presents and state of wickedness that humanity is by nature.

If we call ourselves Christians, are we truly convicted of our own sin? Do we understand what sin is and how it can cause such grief and separation from a loving God?

If we are not convicted ourselves, how then can we convince and help others come to know and love Him?

SDBC had a prayer night during the week, with many people young and old gathering together to give thanks and praise to God for who He is, what He has done and what He continues to do through people that love and serve Him. It was then very encouraging to be reminded that it is God who is worthy of all praise, worthy of honour and worthy of all glory and wisdom.

We therefore rejoice in serving Him, no matter how hard the journey is- because he is one true God who makes all things possible.
