My Father-in-law passed away a few days ago.  As my wife and I were doing our nightly devotions and prayes, our granddaughter interrupted us and wanted to pray too, this has become a nightly thing for her.  Usually she prays for a good sleep, or thank you for her toys, or something in line with what a 5 year old is greatful for.  Every night since his passing, she has asked God to bring her poppy back to live.  As my wife just looked at each other the first night, our granddaughter looks at us and says "What?    He can do that".   There was no doubt or hesitation in her,  she wanted her poppy back and God can make that happen.  She was not excepting anything but that, even when we tried to explain to her that sometimes God does say no to a prayer, not because he cannot do it, but because this is  all part of his plan.  She wanted none of that.  

Anyway,  she got me thinking, how many times do I pray for the impossible, thinking that it is impossible?  I have doubt in my prayer.  How do I get back to that doubtless childlike faith?  I honestly do not know that answer, but I pray for that kind of faith.  I pray that kind of faith for everyone reading this.  Faith so strong that you can ask for the impossible and know, I mean really know, that it is possible with our God, and that anything less is not acceptable.  Yes the answer still may be no, but asking with that kind of faith?  

As you go about your day today, and everyday, expect the impossible.
