March 6, Matthew 19:26

“Jesus looked hard at them and said, “No chance at all if you think you can pull it off yourself. Every chance in the world if you trust God to do it.”

Matthew 19:26 MSG – A verse of the day from the Bible presented in Eugene Peterson’s contemporary version called The Message. Accompanied by a personal reflection below.

THIS is the verse I ought to remember every single day!  There is NO chance I can pull this off all by myself.  I’d be a fool to think I could.  So, what can I do to ensure that I DO pull it off?  Well, Jesus makes it quite clear:  trust God to do it!  How can such complicated things be so simplistic, you ask?  Well, that’s what faith means: when you believe, you place trust, and when you trust, you are rewarded for it.  Place your trust in God, won’t you?
