Beyond Our Wildest Dreams

Now to Him who is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine, according to His power that is at work within us… (Ephesians 3:20, NIV)

There are times that we read verses over and over again without ever letting the truth of them sink in. This verse is one of them for me. I was in my teens the first time I remember reading something that made the enormity of this verse come alive for me. It went something like this:

Now to Him who is able to do all we ask…

Now to Him who is able to do all we ask or imagine…

Now to Him who is able to do more than all we ask or imagine…

Now to Him who is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine…


Do you see it?? Our God is so much bigger than anything we could comprehend. We foolishly allow ourselves to believe that He is confined and constrained by the things that we view as impossible. But He’s not.

There is nothing too big for our God.

Do you believe it?...

Oh boy did I need to hear this message this morning! I am trying so hard to trust that God is able to do "immeasurably more than I could ask or imagine" regarding my little Jordyn. God's plan is so much greater than I could imagine, even if it doesn't include Jordyn staying with us forever. I have to believe that. Thanks for the reminder, sis. I love you! Bren

Hi Bren,
This is Toni, Debbie's friend from Yakima. Debbie has filled us in on what is going on with Jordyn. We will be praying for you here as well!

In Him,
Toni
