Who said all things are possible

The disciples were astonished by this, because in their way of thinking, rich people had the best chance of getting into heaven—they had every advantage. What then should be our response? Humility, submission, and trust. God does what he pleases. He acts according to his will, not mine or yours. We misunderstand this phrase when we act like it is a guarantee of success for any task we are facing. We, like the rich young ruler, think that we have complete control over our lives if God is with us.

Zechariah This is what the LORD of Hosts says: "If this is impossible in the eyes of the remnant of this people in these days, should it also be impossible in My eyes? Matthew When the disciples heard this, they were greatly astonished and asked, "Who then can be saved?
