Do you ever find yourself on a path where the obstacles that lay ahead make the journey seem impossible? I have felt this way lately about a journey I have started on. This week I found myself having a spiritual temper tantrum, whining to the Lord about how the road ahead is impassible and why couldn’t it just be easier. This morning on my way to church, I was realizing that He sets me on these paths because He knows me so well. He knows that if the task is something I feel I can accomplish, I will go ahead and do it on my own, and pretty much say “I got it Lord…I’ll let you know if I run into trouble”. This time the mountains are not the type I can scale or go around, they are mountains that only He can move to make the journey possible. Why don’t I trust Him to do that? He has never failed us, and He is always faithful to see us through, no matter how bad the “odds” might be. IF this is His plan, then He is going to make it happen.
So, please pray for me, dear friends! He has moved several obstacles on this journey all ready, things that would have slammed the door shut to our continuing down this path. Pray for me to trust Him to move the ones that loom ahead. They seem so much bigger and at times I am fearful because they are too big for us to conquer, but nothing is too big for Him.

Praying for whatever obsticles you are facing to clear away!!
Amy,
I have been a follower of your blog for some time now! I prayed for Luke to find a family and since then I have followed! You have NO idea how much I understand this post tonight. My life has been full of obsticles as of late, and this just helped me to know that I am not alone. You are in my prayers.
Oh Amy... I'm walking along side you my friend. Going thru the same thing over here.
But...God is SO much bigger than our mountains and He WILL move them. Keep the faith and cling to hope...
Thank you Lord Jesus for bringing our babies to our arms when it seems impossible to us.
Love and hugs,
Robin
"Because you have so little faith. I tell you the truth, if you have faith as small as a mustard seed, you can say to this mountain, 'Move from here to there' and it will move. Nothing will be impossible for you."
Matthew 17:20
