Today’s History Lesson…
What is your initial reaction when someone tells you that you’re not capable of doing something? Do you listen to them and walk off with a defeated feeling? Or do you hold your head up high and believe that you can do whatever God desires for you to do?
In 1918 Margaret Owen showed many people that she could do “the impossible”. Have you ever tried typing a letter on an antique typewriter? 170 words per minute is like a miracle. I have reached 95 wpm on a computer, but can’t imagine even getting close to that on an old typewriter. Amazing huh?

What in your life are others telling you is impossible? What in your life are you saying is impossible?
Picture Jesus looking at you as he did in Matthew 19:26 and saying, “With man this is impossible, but with God all things are possible.”
