Andy Raatz, October 31, 2021John 4:46-53The Setting: An IMPOSSIBLE SITUATION without a possible solution.The Request: An impossible situation needs help from the only possible source—JESUS.The Answer: Man’s view of the impossible is not the same as God’s understanding ofimpossible.● We can come to Jesus anytime.● The first level of trust is the willingness to ask for help…for strength…for God towork.“As long as you are proud you cannot know God. A proud man is alwayslooking down on things and people: and, of course, as long as you arelooking down you cannot see something that is above you.”- C.S. Lewis, Mere Christianity● Trust is a process; faith is a journey."Faith is so rare--and religion so common--because no one wants to livebetween first base and second base. Faith is the in-between space whereyou're not sure you'll make it to second base. You've let go of one thing andhaven't yet latched into another. Most of us choose the security of firstbase." - Richard Rohr● The faith journey with Jesus will be dotted with miracles.● Belief and Faith are built layer by layer, a deepening journey of trust."It need not discourage us if we are full of doubts. Healthy questions keepfaith dynamic. In fact, unless we start with doubts we cannot have a deep-rooted faith. One who believes lightly and unthinkingly has not much of abelief. One who has a faith which is not to be shaken has won it through bloodand tears--has worked his or her way from doubt to truth as one who reachesa clearing through a thicket of brambles and thorns." - Helen Keller
