day no. 12,971: mission impossible‏

Luke 18:27

He replied,“What is impossible with men is possible with God.”

The love of money is the most common stumbling block that keeps people from entering into God’s Kingdom. So much so that people rich in this life have a particularly difficult time receiving anything from God.

The disciples assumed that rich people were blessed and therefore if the most blessed people have a difficult time making it to heaven, who has a chance, right?
Jesus assures us that it is impossible for us to come to Him.

Wait, how is that assuring?

It is impossible for us.

But it is possible with and through Him.

But don't take my word for it:

1 Thessalonians 5:24
 
He who calls you is faithful, who also will do it.
 
Hebrews 10:23
 
Let us hold on to the confession of our hope without wavering, for He who promised is faithful.
