Today as I was having my devotions and I was reading my Bible I read from Luke 1. Verses 36-37 stuck out the most to me since I'm reading about woman of the Bible. Verse 36 shows us about another woman whose name is Elisabeth. Verse 36 tells us. "And, behold, thy cousin Elisabeth, she hath also conceived a son in her old age: and this is the sixth month with her, who was called barren." Elisabeth wanted a son for awhile but she never was able to conceive when she was younger. When she was older she conceived her son. His name is John the Baptist. John the Baptist was related to Jesus Christ as his cousin. But I'd like to focus mainly on verse 37 in Luke 1. Verse 37 says, "For with God nothing shall be impossible." What does the verse mean? It's saying that without God there are things that we can't do. Well when you are with God there is nothing that is to great for Him. We can go back to Elisabeth as an example of there's nothing that is impossible with God. Elisabeth dreamed of having a child. She was waiting for most of her life, and when she heard the news that she had conceived the news became true. The miracle not only made her grow in her faith but also inspired the mother of Jesus. Mary must have been moved by all the news: to be a virgin and to find out that you where pregnant and the child she would carry was the Son of God and that was a big surprise. But let's go back to the main part we are talking about. With God EVERYTHING is possible. In Mark 10:27 Jesus is talking to his disciples and he says to them "With men it is impossible, but not with God: for with God all things are possible." God often acts in ways 
His grace showers on everyone, and He provides for others. One blessing extends into many miracles. NOTHING IS IMPOSSIBLE WITH GOD! Also everything happens in God's timing. We may want certain things at a certain point, but if it's not the Lord's for that time then it won't happen. Only in the Lord's timing! In Romans 5:6 "For when we were yet without strength, in due time Christ died for the ungodly. " This verse is saying that Jesus Christ died for those who are weak. In regards to that verse we can also go to Romans 5:8 that says "While we were yet sinners, Christ died for us." That verse is talking about Christ who died for the sinners of the world. We are sinners from when we are born until we die. Even if you accept Jesus Christ as your personal Lord and Savior you are and always will be capable of sinning. Just because you have accepted the Lord Jesus Christ doesn't mean you won't sin anymore. You won't and you never will be perfect. The only perfect person is Jesus Christ.
