Day 27
INCH BY INCH
Our inspiration today has its roots in a little chorus we used to sing in Vacation Bible School.
Got any rivers you think are uncrossable
Got any mountains you cannot tunnel through
God specializes in things thought impossible
And He can do what no other power can do.
Rivers and mountains may suggest difficulties and sometimes opposition. We all have them. We are the people who look ahead and gaze at that river or mountain and say, " How am I ever going to get over them? How shall I face all that lies ahead?"
Someone has said, " Yard by yard, life is hard; inch by inch, life’s a cinch."
Today, I'd like to encourage you to keep to the present "little inch" that is before you; and do the things in that little moment that belongs to it. The mountains, the big things, and the rivers, the seeming impossible, can be passed over in the same way. When you come to them you will have the strength to face them. To one of the tribes in Israel, Moses wrote, "Your strength will equal your days" Deut.33:25. In the New Testament , Matt.17:20, we read "Nothing will be impossible for you."
