His Arm and Now His Ear!

I love the picture that God gives me when I think of His arm not being too short. It has been in my mind for over a year now. God started this in my heart around the time of Ephraim's surgery last year with Jeremiah 32:17 -- "Ah, Sovereign LORD, You have made the heavens and the earth by Your great power and outstretched arm. Nothing is too hard for You."

Then while studying the Life of Moses in BSF this past year, God gave me Numbers 11:23 -- "The LORD answered Moses, "Is the LORD's arm too short? You will now see whether or not what I say will come true for you." Of course God did exactly what He said He would do for Moses and He has been faithful to our family too.

God didn't stop with these two verses, this week He showed me Isaiah 59:1 -- "Surely the arm of the LORD is not too short to save, nor His ear too dull to hear". I love the way God reveals more and more of His character to me. What a comfort to know not only is Nothing too hard for Him, nor is His arm too short, but His ear is inclined to me, He hears my prayers. I can't utter a prayer to mundane or for that matter too spectacular for Him. I can't underestimate Him!
