Here is a poem of declaration and faith, built upon that powerful promise.

The Possible
The mountain stands, immutable and vast, A shadow on the future and the past. The sea parts not,a churning, endless wall, A circumstance too formidable to fall. A heart feels dry,a desert, parched and long, And every note of hope feels out of tune,a wronged song.
Then comes the whisper, quiet, clear, and deep, That stirs the soul awake from its numb sleep: “All things are possible… not through your strained might, But through your God, who loves you with infinite light.”
The “thing” itself is not what makes the way; The love behind the promise turns the day. It is not magic,not a vague, blind force, But Love Himself,the everlasting Source. The hand that formed the world and set it free, Is the same hand that works…for me.
So let the mountain tremble at its core, And be a level plain forevermore. Let the sea part,a highway through the foam, And lead my weary,wandering spirit home. Let deserts bloom with life I cannot see, For what ispossible to Love, will be.
I lean not on the size of the ordeal, But on the love of God,forever real. This is the faith that anchors in the storm— Not my own strength,but His unwavering form.
All things are possible. My God can do. And because He loves me, He will see me through.
Amen.

The Scripture Behind the Poem:
This poem rests on the bedrock of two essential promises in Scripture:
Jesus looked at them and said, “With man this is impossible, but with God all things are possible.” — Matthew 19:26 (NIV)
“And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose.” — Romans 8:28 (NIV)
The phrase "that loves me" personalizes the promise, anchoring God's infinite power in His intimate and personal love for you. It is not a distant force, but a loving Father for whom no good thing is out of reach.
