Is anything to hard for God?

Today I read Jeremiah 32:12-34:4 and Hebrews 1:6-2:12. My favorite verses are:

Jeremiah 32:27 Behold, I am the LORD, the God of all flesh: is there any thing too hard for me?

Hebrews 2:4 God also bearing them witness, both with signs and wonders, and with divers miracles, and gifts of the Holy Ghost, according to his own will.

Do we believe God? Do we trust God? Do we ask God for impossible miracles? And if we ask, do we expect them to happen? I am as guilty as anyone of praying to God about something then offering Him my insight as to how it should be handled. And I usually realize mid-prayer just how ridiculous I must sound to God. When we ask for something then begin to think of reasons why we would understand if God doesn’t answer, God must be really frustrated with our unbelief. We struggle along in this world trying to work out our problems the best way we can instead of giving them to God—not SHARING, but GIVING! Let Him have them. I have heard parents tell their children, “Look at me! Listen to what I am telling you!” I can imagine God taking my face in His hands and saying, “Look at me! I am the Lord! Is anything too hard for me?!” Why can we not accept Him at His word? He has so much to give us, but He is waiting for us to ask in faith. Signs, wonders, miracles, gifts of the Holy Ghost—God can give us all this and more. He longs to bless us above all that we can ask or think, but we are usually too self-involved to even give Him a chance. God, forgive us again; and teach us to trust and obey and allow YOU to BE GOD.
