There are so many things beyond my power to have much of an effect on. Something too heavy, too far out of reach, and not in my wheelhouse. Or someone I see needing help that's beyond me, skill sets my husband excelled at, but are not mine!

I sure miss how gifted he was to fix, build, repair or resolve a problem!

And now when life throws a curve ball, and it's only me wondering what to do, I realize I've walked into an Ephesians 3:20 moment!

First is to pray! Ask God for wisdom ( James 1), acknowledge Him (Proverbs 3:5-7) and cast the problem onto Him (1Peter 5:7)

Then read aloud Ephesians 3:20 "Now to him who is able to do above and beyond all that we ask or think according to the power that works in us--- to him be glory..."

One translation says "exceedingly abundantly more than we can ask or think".

I may not have the answers for how it will get done how that need will be met or how this issue will be resolved! But I know that He knows! And He knew I would encounter this today on this date!

And I will thank Him and give Him the glory.

Because of the Cross, because He is my Lord and Savior, He has already done so much more than I could ever ask or think.
