The Realm Where All Things Are Possible

When individuals get what life is all about, they don’t shrink back from hard stuff, strategically moving forward, willing and wanting to live better than the day before.  I’ve watched one friend go through grief when her husband left their marriage, learning to be single after being married most of her adult life.   To survive she went through the process of getting a new job and a new home, changing how she had lived for years, choosing to intentionally and deliberately step into the power that makes us new each day, determined to live the best life despite the hurt and loss, believing all things are possible.   I just look at her and want to celebrate life.
The thing is . . . she lives in complete contrast to the individuals who give up what God offers . . . absorbed with their stuff, consumed and overwhelmed, missing the gift of the day.
When something hard comes to the door of our life, we do not give up.  But.  We choose to push through it, stepping into the realm where are all things are possible, renewed every day to do whatever is necessary to live the best life God has planned.  
Consider.
That is why we never give up. Though our bodies are dying, our spirits are being renewed every day (2 Corinthians 4:16 NLT),

When we receive God’s grace, we enter into a new life, into the realm of powerful living as the Spirit makes us new each day, giving us a new perspective, a new passion, a new strength to live courageously.  Even when the stuff of life seems too hard, nothing can compare with the power of grace that enables us to push through it.  So. When we go through changes we do not want, when someone does something which impacts what will happen to us, when we wonder if we could possibly go forward, we need to realize nothing and no one has the power to take away the best life God has planned for us, if, we seek Him first, stepping in to the realm where all things are possible, refusing to give up.

Refuse to give up.
Be renewed.
Walk in the power of God given to you through His grace, in the realm where all things are possible.

Learning to Kickstart the day, renewed, living in the realm where all things are possible,
