God’s promises

“Not one promise from God is empty of power. Nothing is impossible with God!”Luke‬ ‭1‬:‭37‬ ‭TPT‬‬

The angel Gabriel said these words to Mary after telling her that her elderly cousin Elizabeth was also pregnant. What man considered impossible, with God was possible. Sarah was Elizabeth’s proof. Sarah conceived and bore Issac in her 90’s. Issac means laughter. Laughter ensued when Sarah became pregnant. John ensued when Elizabeth became pregnant.

Sarah and Elizabeth speak to God’s amazing ability to do the impossible. As a woman in her 70’s I can look to this amazing fulfilment and know God is not finished with me yet. Whilst I do not need to bear more children, naturally,  I can bring forth more disciples to Jesus and thus spiritual children.

Today I start my exam week. The study I am doing will further enhance my language ability and understanding. I am learning the Nepali language so that I can converse with the Nepali people. The task has been fraught with physical difficulties, however, I am still here and have accomplished what few have dared to try. I have one more term before I can move onto a research project in western Nepal. That is where I want to be!
