     What I got from Jesus is: Why impossible become possible?

     

     Today Jesus asks all of us a very important question. What's your answer?

     I have seen quite a number of plates and bookmarks use verse 27 as the message. But, do we understand it's background?

     The background is from Mark 10:17-26 about the walking away of the rich young man after Jesus called him to follow him. Why? It's impossible! How can he left all he had and followed Jesus!

     What a contrast to the message I got in yesterday's Evangelist123 blog about those women following Jesus and support Jesus and his disciples our of their own pockets: http://discipler123.blogspot.ca/

     I don't think it's a coincidence!

    Do you want to follow Jesus really? If you really want to, then you need to know that it is impossible. Jesus is going to give you many challenges to let go of many things, so many that one day you'll say, "No, I can't!"

    When that times comes, it's the examination paper gives to that you never can pass. Why? Because only if you ask Jesus to take that for you then you can get through. I do hope you understand what I just said.

     Jesus says, “With man this is impossible, but not with God; all things are possible with God.”

     

Dear Lord Jesus,

Lead us to understand that we as human beings are so limited but all things are possible with you. Help us to understand we really can't leave everything to follow you only if we let you to take control of our lives. In Jesus name we pray. Amen.

**NEW link for the 12th 100 days 24 hours prayer campaign (from December 04, 2012 to March 14, 2013)

The easiest way is to take one hour slot for the whole week. What you need to do is very simple. Choose one dayThe easiest way is to take one hour slot for the whole week to pray for me, my family and my ministry, remembering the ministry of ACiC(ACiC has two Networks: ACiC, Anglican Coalition in Canada and AI, Asian Initiative). You may use the whole hour in prayer or you can still do you work in your office but use as much time as you can to pray and the other time work prayerfully that hour to pray for our ministry. This campaign is also to teach you that you need somebody to pray for you daily. I have been prayed for hourly the past 1,200 days and I have never experienced this kind of peace and protection before. It's just beyond words can express. If I did not listen and obey to Jesus call 1,200 days ago to start this prayer movement, I think I would be pulled into darkness and discouragement already! I deeply believe that this is a way to draw as many participation as we can in prayers. I encourage you to participate. We need you to join us! Trust in the power of prayers!
