I’ve had many moments when I’ve felt so weak that my remaining time on earth feels like a mission impossible. In my body’s weakness, it’s given many extra hours for prayer and time in God’s Word. 

It’s created time to ask our “mighty to save” LORD (Is. 63:1) to save many, joining my sisters in Christ who are in agony for loved ones who do not know Jesus Christ. 

God keeps reminding me of what Jesus tells us in this sad and scary situation. 

“With man this is impossible, but with God all things are possible” (Mt. 19:26 ESV).

Merciful Lord, help me remember the “mission impossible” of Your saving me!

(“Redemption Found,” Rothe, J. A., p.d.)

Lord, help me to cling to Your “all things are possible” truth when I fear for those unsaved

May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, so that by the power of the Holy Spirit you may abound in hope (Rom. 15:13 ESV).

Lord Jesus, re-focus my thoughts on Your ongoing gift of redeeming mercy and steadfast love, redemption found!

I am the vine; you are the branches. Whoever abides in me and I in him, he it is that bears much fruit, for apart from me you can do nothing John 15:5

Power-full Lord, fix my gaze on Your “redemption found” love rather than what feels like a mission impossible

Lord, help me to point to and show those unsaved…Your abiding love in Christ, redemption found!

but God shows his love for us in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us (Rom. 5:8 ESV).
