Not Impossible, But Not Easy

In church today, I heard someone mention Luke 1:37, "For with God nothing shall be impossible." and I remember thinking "Sure, but nothing shall be easy, either." God likes challenging us. His main interest is our eternal growth, and we can't grow while we're not being challenged. So while God will always make sure it's possible for us to overcome our challenges, He will also make sure it's still at least enough of a challenge to help us grow. So, if you're facing tough challenges, and I'm sure you are, remember that those challenges are probably tough by God's design and that, with His help, you can still overcome them. God wants us to struggle, but ultimately, He also wants us to succeed, so if we follow His plan for us, yes we will struggle, but ultimately, we will also succeed.
