Happy Sunday!
I was saddened to hear about the passing of Astronaut Neil Armstrong. It made me think about the "Tower of Babel". I know you are laughing, and wondering how Neil Armstrong could be connected to the Old Testament.
Genesis 11 tells the story. At one time there was only one language. The people decided that they would build a tower to reach heaven. Sounds foolish right, but it's not. Verses 6-9 say, "Look!” God said. “The people are united, and they all speak the same language. After this, nothing they set out to do will be IMPOSSIBLE for them! Come, let’s go down and confuse the people with different languages. Then they won’t be able to understand each other.” (New Living Translation)
God said it himself, he knew that nothing was impossible for man once he made up his mind to do it! We are still trying to get to heaven! We are still exploring the universe. We are still capable of doing anything we determine to do. Back in Genesis, they never imagined that a man could walk on the moon. They never imagined putting a Rover on Mars.
What is your tower? What are you building that seems impossible? What is God saying about you? Is he saying that you can and will succeed? Is he saying you will live and not die and declare his works? (Psalms 118:17)
Luke 1:37, "Nothing, you see, is impossible with God."
Have an amazing week! Love and prayers, Cynthia
