If I'm just being honest, some days it feels like we're at the foot of this....
And it really seems to look a lot more like this...
And that makes me think of a song...."It's only a mountain":
"It's not as high as you think it is
Don't give up and don't quit
You gotta climb...
Ask like you believe it
Trust like you can see it
Take your fear and say
There's nothing in your way
Even when it looks big
Even when you feel small
Just a little bit of faith can change it all
It's only a mountain
Just a little bit of faith can change it all"
And it also makes me think of where it says:
The mountains quaked at the presence of the LORD...Judges 5:5
Every valley shall be exalted, and every mountain and hill shall be made low: and the crooked shall be made straight, and the rough places plain. Isaiah 40:4
...you will tell this mountain, Move from here to there, and it will move. Nothing will be impossible for you. {from Matthew 17}
This thing, every detail of this process, is so far beyond us.
We're way in over our heads.
Out of our league.
At the foot of a whole range of mountains of all shapes and sizes.
Thankfully, we didn't get here on our own.
We were led here by the One whose presence causes the mountains to quake, who makes them low, and and who can move them from here to there....
