VerseD: Luke 1:37

“For nothing will be impossible with God.”

VerseD: Roman’s 8:6-8

For to set the mind on the flesh is death, but to set the mind on the Spirit is life and peace. For the mind that is set on the flesh is hostile to God, for it does not submit to God’s law; indeed, it cannot. Those who are in the flesh cannot please God.
Romans 8:6‭-‬8, ESV

How easily we get caught up in our worries, wants, and walking. (Being indifferent. Alliteration is fun.)

These times are active rebellion against God. We should pay for the Father to give us the strength and wisdom to overcome in Christ by the power of the Holy Spirit.

Trust His Son, who was lifted up.

We can trust Him.

VerseD: Jeremiah 32:17

“Ah, Lord God! Behold, You have made the heavens and the earth by Your great power and outstretched arm. There is nothing too hard for You.”
Jeremiah 32:17, NKJV

Why do we struggle to trust God?

If He can create literally everything, and He is able to raise people from the dead, walk on water, and make a few loaves and fish feed thousands, surely He can handle each of our situations in life.
