«Behold, I am the Lord, the God of all flesh. Is there anything too hard for Me?» (Jeremiah 32:27).
ESTRELLA COULD NOT STOP crying, since the situations that overwhelmed her were too many and too she needed a great miracle for her grandmother, an even greater one for some Cuban friends, and she had to move to another house urgently. In her mental anguish, she cried out and asked God, «Lord, please, give me a hug! Please, Lord, in the middle of this crisis, I need your embrace.»
And the Lord immediately sent her a hug by means of a dear friend. This friend, who was completely ignorant of all the problems Estrella had, sent her the verse in Jeremiah 32:27 by text message: «Behold, I am the Lord, the God of all flesh. Is there anything too hard for Me?» What an incredible reminder of what she, in her deepest pain, could barely glimpse: nothing is too hard for God. It may seem like that to us sometimes, but never to Him.
Do you perhaps need to remember this truth today? Could it be that the situations that surround you are so complicated that you do not see a way out and need God to prove His power in your life? If that is so, dear friend, the Lord is sending you His hug right now. He says to you: «My daughter, trust in Me.»
Remember, for example, the words He said to Abraham concerning Sarah: «Is anything too hard for the Lord? At the appointed time I will return to you, according to the time of life, and Sarah shall have a son» (Genesis 18:14). Sarah? Have a son? But how, if she was already «old, well advanced in age» (verse 11)? Well, we do not know the how, but God does. One year later, that woman who could not have children held in her arms her precious little baby.
The Seventh-day Adventist Bible Commentary says: «Where human wisdom and strength fail, and where nature, enfeebled, lacks ability to act, there God still has full sway and brings things to pass according to the counsels of His own divine will. In fact, He often permits circumstances to reach an impasse so that human impotence may stand forth in striking contrast to His omnipotence» (vol. 1, p. 328).
So trust, because nothing is too hard for God.
