God is pleased to work in and through us whenever we ask him to do so

Do not ask “what can I do?” but “what can He not do?”

~~Corrie Ten Boom

This morning’s prayer and meditation for Sally’s healing comes from Take Heart, Oh God: Riches from the Greatest Christian Women Writers of All Time.

We try, we really do—cleverly designing the solution, pushing and sweating to make it work, pulling an all-nighter to finish the project. Hard work leads to success—that’s what we’ve learned, it’s in our DNA. But when we hit the impossible, the unthinkable, the immovable, we don’t understand. What then?

How about, instead of focusing on “What can I do?” we ask, “What can God not do?” Nothing is impossible with God. And nothing is impossible with you when you depend on him. Here’s the most amazing thing—God is pleased to work in and through us whenever we ask him to do so.

Do your best, but realize that it’s not all about you and what you can do. It’s about you being available to be used by God. That’s a whole different perspective. Through you, what can he not do?

Prayer for Meditation

Lord, what can you not do today? Nothing. Remind me of that.

O Sovereign LORD! You made the heavens and earth by your strong hand and powerful arm. Nothing is too hard for you!
