“For nothing is impossible with God.” — Luke 1:37

This sentence climaxes the angel’s announcement to Mary that she will carry the Messiah. In fact, I would say this truth is what holds the entire “Christmas story” together. I’m not just meaning the fact that a virgin would conceive, but that God would actually get involved in a shattered, sin-tainted, selfish, violent, oppressive world and usher in his New Creation.

Right now, we need God to step in and do the “impossible.” A young couple in our faith-community had a baby last week named Gavin. His kidneys are only working at about 15%. If you’re reading this post, please pray for him and his parents.

Pray for healing, for life, for peace, and whatever else God stretches your imagination with for this family. Thank you.
