14 Is any thing too hard for the Lord? At the time appointed I will return unto thee, according to the time of life, and Sarah shall have a son (Genesis 18:14).
There is nothing that is too hard for God to accomplish. He accomplishes the seemingly impossible. It was, in human terms, impossible for Sarah at her age to have a son, and yet that is exactly what occurred. Through God’s sovereign action, Isaac was born and through Isaac God’s promises were fulfilled. We would do well to remember that even when we seem to be up against impossible odds or unfortunate circumstances, God is able to cause things to work out for the good. Sometimes it is hard for us to see this since we have a very finite view, but God works things out from an eternal perspective. Nothing is too hard for the Lord; we should then seek Him for strength and hope in all things.
