Romans 4:19-21

19"Without becoming weak in faith, he (Abraham) contemplated his own body, now as good as dead because he was 100 years old, and the deadness of Sarah's womb;
20 yet, with respect to the promise of God, he did not wavier in unbelief, but grew strong in faith, giving glory to God, 21 and being fully assured, that what God had promised, He was also able to perform."

The Lord has used this scripture this week to remind me to have faith, even when things seem impossible. How is it possible that one day, we'll be in China, picking up our daughter? Sometimes, it seems as impossible as a 100 year old man and woman having a child.

Whatever seems impossible in your life right now, rest assured that "what God has promised, He is also able to perform."

Praise be to HIM!!!!
