Impossible                 
 
"Then who can be saved?" Jesus looked at them and said, "With man it is impossible, but not with God. For all things are possible with God."
Mark 10:26-27


Reality TV loves the survival genre. Naked and Afraid, Swamp Men, Gold Rush, Alaska the Last Frontier...can they survive the heat, the hunger, the bears, the alligators, the financial gamble. Why so many shows? Our culture buys what they sell. Mark 10 tells us the same perspective was around in Jesus day, people believing if they try hard enough they can do anything, even earn salvation. Jesus is clear: impossible for man, but not for God.


Dear Jesus,
I cling to my own strength, believing I can do anything, and that I am good enough. I can't save myself. Humble me. Wash me with your saving grace. Strengthen me for humble service in your name.
A-men
