Is the Task Ahead Too Big for You?

Are you looking ahead and something and saying to yourself, “It’s too big!  Too Much!  Too Hard!  I can’t do it!”

I have been there, more than once, and so have you.

It could be a relationship.   Relationships are the hardest thing that we have to deal with in our lives.  I have a friend who says, “Work would be awesome if there were no people.”   People complicate things.  Maybe you are thinking about a person right now and thinking, fixing that relationship is a mountain too big to climb.  I can’t do it.  I don’t want to do it.    I won’t do it.  Your choice, but what if God wants you to?

It could be a project at work.  It seems like an impossibility…. something too hard and too much for you.  You don’t even know where to start.

Or maybe it is a personal thing… battling an addiction.  Maybe you need to lose weight, or stop smoking, or stop drinking… but you just know it’s too much.

I have shared this quote with you many times, but my lifetime mentor, a man by the name of Paul Mills, taught me this more than 30 years ago:  If God wants to do something great, He starts with a problem.  If He wants to do something spectacular, He starts with an impossibility.  What is the task ahead of you?  Is it impossible?

Then look out…. God is fixin’ to do something spectacular!
