經文：「耶和華豈有難成的事麼？」（創18:14） 這是神今天給你我的一個質問。也許在我們的心中曾經有過一個最深、最高、最大的願望；或許是關於自己的，或者是關於所愛的人；只是經過了許久都還沒有成就；我們就以為或許以前還有成就的可能，到了現在就絕不可能了，於是就放棄了今生還能實現的信心。 任何願望，如果是合神心意的，神必替我們成就；就算我們認為那幾乎是完全不可能；甚至當我們再聽人說起，還會笑自己荒謬。 但若我們肯讓神成就，祂就一定替我們成就。 因為「耶和華豈有難成的事麼？」，沒有！只要我們相信，按照祂的旨意前行，讓祂獨自去替我們完成那不可能的，在神就沒有難成的事了。不然，就算亞伯拉罕和撒拉也有攔阻神旨意的可能。 那惟一能攔阻神的，就是：繼續不信祂的慈愛與能力，和一直拒絕神在我們身上的計劃。對於那些信靠祂的人，在神絕沒有一件難成的事。--譯自晨更信息 Messages for the Morning Watch 新譯｜荒漠甘泉讀書會

Scripture: "Is there anything too hard for Jehovah?" (Gen. 18:14). Here is God's loving challenge to you and to me today. He wants us to think of the deepest, highest, worthiest desire and longing of our hearts, something which perhaps was our desire for ourselves or for someone dear to us, yet which has been so long unfulfilled that we have looked upon it as only a lost desire, that which might have been but now cannot be, and so have given up hope of seeing it fulfilled in this life. That thing, if it is in line with what we know to be His expressed will (as a son to Abraham and Sarah was), God intends to do for us, even if we know that it is of such utter impossibility that we only laugh at the absurdity of anyone's supposing it could ever now come to pass. That thing God intends to do for us, if we will let Him. "Is anything too hard for the Lord?" Not when we believe in Him enough to go forward and do His will, and let Him do the impossible for us. Even Abraham and Sarah could have blocked God's plan if they had continued to disbelieve. The only thing too hard for Jehovah is deliberate, continued disbelief in His love and power, and our final rejection of His plans for us. Nothing is too hard for Jehovah to do for them that trust Him --Messages for the Morning Watch ｜ Mrs. Charles Cowman
