Reaching for a Miracle?

Impossibly dead, Lazarus lay in a cave and Jesus ached...

Impossibly bleeding for twelve years a crushed woman dared to reach through a crowd to Jesus...

Impossibly the eyes of a man born blind were patched under a spit and dirt laden poultice, then Jesus told him to go for a swim...

Impossibly Hannah pleaded from a heart-torn lament with the Lord to remove her barrenness (for 19 years one tradition suggests)...

Faith is tested in despair's crucible - when mankind is at his extremity. ~ Michael Cartwright

There is no human extremity beyond a man's faith, nor Jesus' ability to reach it. 

Jesus replied, what is impossible for man is possible for God. (Luke 18:27)

Men still rise from the dead, bleeding still ceases, eyes are still opened and the childless still bear children, because:

miracles have never been consigned to history as God does not change.

Impossible hopelessness remains the rich soils for miracles still to appear. ~ Michael Cartwright
