Making The Impossible, Possible

"For men, this is impossible, but for God all things are possible." (Mt 19:26). Jesus was speaking of the difficulty we face when we cling to riches or other substitutes for God.  We all face "the eye of the needle" (a narrow passage in ancient Jerusalem) and as defeatists we claim victory of the eye over us.  But Jesus says, no, there is a way...God's way, God's grace.  Where do I stand at this moment, blocked by my disbelief, by my possessions, fears, anxieties?  Or will I allow God to slick me down with the oil of his grace to enable me to pass through "the impossible eye of the needle?"
