There is a place most people eventually reach where every reasonable option has been exhausted. Where the doctors have done everything medicine allows and the prognosis still doesn’t change. Where the relationship has been worked on from every angle and the fracture is still there. Where the financial situation has moved so far past difficult that the only honest word left for it is impossible. That place is not where faith goes to die. It is, according to every story Scripture preserved for exactly this reason, where God tends to do His most extraordinary work — in the space after human effort has run out and the only thing left is someone on their knees refusing to stop believing.
That’s exactly what this collection of miracle prayers for the impossible is here to meet you in. You’ll find the best bold, expectant, heaven-directed prayers for healing that defies every medical explanation, restoration of what seemed permanently broken, breakthrough in situations that closed every door except the one only God can open, and the specific, unwavering, Scripture-backed faith that looks at an impossible situation and prays anyway — not because the circumstances changed but because the God being prayed to never has. Pray them out loud in the middle of the impossible. Pray them when the fear says it is too late and the doubt says it is too much. It was never too much for Him. And it is not too much now.
Miracle Prayers for the Impossible When the End of Everything Is Actually the Beginning
There is a specific geography that only certain people have visited — the place where every option has been exhausted, where every door that could be pushed on has been pushed on, where the human effort and the human resourcefulness and the human network of people who might be able to help have all been brought to bear on the situation and the situation has not moved. It does not feel like holy ground when you are standing in it. It feels like failure. It feels like the specific, vertiginous, nothing-left terror of a person who has run out of the things that running out was not supposed to be possible for. But the Scripture is full of a pattern that the comfortable life obscures — that God does His most undeniable work at exactly this address. The Red Sea was behind them and the army was behind that and the water did not part until the options had genuinely run out. The oil did not multiply until the widow had almost nothing to multiply. Lazarus was four days in the tomb before Jesus arrived — not because Jesus was late, but because what was coming required that the impossibility be established beyond any argument before the miracle made it irrelevant. If you are here, at the end of everything — you are in the right place. This is where miracles begin.
A Prayer From the End of the Road
Dear Lord, I have arrived at the place I did not believe I would actually reach — the genuine, specific, nothing-left-to-try end of what human effort and human resource can do with this situation. I want to be honest that this is where I am rather than performing a composure I do not have. The options are gone. The backup plans have been used. The people I thought could help have reached the edge of their ability. And I am standing at what looks like the end of the road with the awareness that I came here not because I gave up but because I gave everything. You meet people at the end of roads. You always have. Meet me here. In Jesus’ name, amen.
A Prayer When the Math Does Not Work and Never Did
God, the math has never worked in my favor on this. The numbers, the odds, the statistical likelihood of the outcome I have been praying for — none of it has been encouraging and I have been bringing the prayer anyway because I know You are not constrained by the math. You fed five thousand people with five loaves and the math was wrong then too. You closed the mouths of lions and the physics of predation did not cooperate. You raised a man who had been dead four days and the biology was unambiguous and You revised it anyway. The math says this is impossible. I am bringing the impossible to the One who has never once been limited by what the numbers say. In Jesus’ name, amen.
A Prayer That Is Mostly Just the Need
Dear Lord, I do not have the eloquent version of this prayer today. What I have is the need — raw, unmanaged, larger than the words I am reaching for. The situation is this: I am out of options and out of time and out of the faith that comes easily and into the specific, costly, still-showing-up faith that arrives after everything easier has been used up. You see it. All of it. The prayer I cannot fully form and the desperation underneath the prayer and the love underneath the desperation that is driving me to keep knocking on the door that has not opened yet. Hear what I cannot say. Answer what I barely know how to ask. In Jesus’ name, amen.
A Prayer for the God Who Specializes in This
Heavenly Father, I have read what You do at the end of things. The burning bush was not in the city — it was in the wilderness, on the back side of the desert, in the place Moses had gone when Egypt was over and the old life was behind him and the new one was not yet visible. The angel found Hagar in the desert after she had been sent away with nothing. You found Elijah under a tree after the victory had given way to the collapse. You have always been in the specific business of showing up in the places where showing up seems least reasonable. I am in one of those places. This is Your territory. Come and do what You do here. In Jesus’ name, amen.
Miracle Prayers When the Situation Has Been Called Impossible
The word impossible has a specific power over the human spirit that is worth examining before accepting. It arrives in clinical language from the doctor who has reviewed the scans. It arrives in the attorney’s measured tone explaining what the legal framework will and will not permit. It arrives in the financial advisor’s careful arithmetic and the counselor’s honest assessment and the engineer’s structural report. And every person who has ever used the word has been working from the same framework — the framework of what is achievable by the means currently available to human beings. That framework is real. And it is not the only framework in the room when God is present. The God of Scripture has spent thousands of years demonstrating, to anyone paying close enough attention to the record, that the word impossible is a description of the natural order and not a description of what the supernatural can do when the natural has declared itself finished. These prayers are for the specific situations that have received the verdict.
A Prayer When the Doctor Said There Is Nothing More to Do
Dear Lord, the doctor used the words and the words have been sitting in me since the appointment with a specific weight that the appointment itself did not fully prepare me for. The options have been reviewed and the treatment has done what it could do and the conversation has shifted in the direction it shifts when the medical framework has reached its honest boundary. I am not bringing this to the medical framework anymore. I am bringing it to the God who designed the body that the framework has reached the edge of repairing. You are not at the edge of anything. You are not limited by what the imaging shows or what the specialists agree on. Speak a different word than the one the appointment left me with. In Jesus’ name, amen.
A Prayer When the Legal Situation Has No Good Outcome
God, the legal situation has been reviewed by people whose job is to find the available paths through difficult situations and the paths they have found are narrow and the outcomes at the end of them are not the outcomes I am praying for. I know You are not limited by the legal framework. I know You are the God of Esther who influenced a king’s decision in the night hours without any visible human mechanism. I know You closed the mouths of witnesses and opened the doors of prisons and changed the decrees of rulers when Your purposes required it. You are sovereign over the legal framework the same way You are sovereign over everything else. Move in what the attorneys cannot move. In Jesus’ name, amen.
A Prayer When the Relationship Has Been Declared Unsalvageable
Heavenly Father, the people whose job it is to assess these things have said what they have said — that the damage is too significant, the distance too wide, the repair too improbable given the current condition of what needs repairing. And I understand their assessment. I have seen the damage myself and the width of the distance is not something I am disputing. But I know the God who made the dry bones dance in Ezekiel’s valley. Who restored what Job lost beyond what Job thought possible. Who turned the prodigal’s pig pen into the occasion for a feast that the prodigal had not allowed himself to imagine even as he was walking home. Restore what the assessors have declared past restoring. In Jesus’ name, amen.
A Prayer When the Finances Are Past the Point of Recovery
Dear Lord, the financial situation has passed the place where good advice and better management can get it back to where it needs to be. The gap is too large and the time is too short and the resources are too few and the combination of those three things has produced a verdict that I am appealing — to the court that sits above every financial framework, to the God who made oil multiply in a widow’s jar and produced a coin from a fish’s mouth and turned the specific poverty of the specific desperate person into testimony. I am the specific desperate person. This is the specific impossible situation. You are the God who makes things multiply from nothing. Make something from this. In Jesus’ name, amen.
A Prayer When the Prognosis Was the Worst One
God, the prognosis they gave was the one I was afraid they would give and the fear of it is sitting in the chest in the specific physical way that hard news about a hard situation finds a place in the body and stays there. The prognosis is based on the data. The data does not include You. The data does not account for a God who revised the prognosis over a man who had been dead long enough for the tomb to be sealed. Who healed the man born blind when the disciples wanted to debate the theology of it. Who cured the one who had been bleeding twelve years when all the physicians had taken everything she had and done nothing for her. Revise the prognosis. You have the medical authority to do it. In Jesus’ name, amen.
A Prayer for the Verdict That Has Not Been Spoken Yet
Heavenly Father, the verdict is coming — I am waiting for it in the specific suspense of someone who does not know what it will say but who knows that what it says will reorganize everything about what comes next. You already know the verdict. You are already there in the moment where I am not yet. And I am asking You to speak into the situation before the verdict is delivered — to move in the people who will determine it, to guide the information they will consider, to work in the unseen interior of the process in ways I cannot see from the outside. Let the verdict that comes be the one that reflects Your hand in the proceedings. In Jesus’ name, amen.
A Prayer When Time Has Run Out
Dear Lord, the timeline I was given has expired. The window that was open is closing or closed. The specific amount of time the situation allowed for the miracle to arrive within the natural framework has run out or is running out as this prayer is being said. I refuse to accept that the closing of the window means the closing of what You can do. You stopped time for Joshua. You turned the shadow backward for Hezekiah. You operate outside the constraints of the timeline as easily as You operate inside it. The clock does not limit You. The deadline does not restrict the One who made time. Move outside the time I was given. In Jesus’ name, amen.
Miracle Prayers for the People We Love in Impossible Situations
The miracle prayer said on behalf of someone else has its own specific urgency — the doubled desperation of a person who would take the impossible situation from the person they love if taking were available as an option, and who is left with only the prayer because the prayer is the only thing that crosses the distance between where they are and where the person they love is suffering. Intercession is one of the most selfless acts available to a human being. It is spending your access to God on behalf of someone else’s need. The friend who tore open the roof to lower the paralyzed man to the feet of Jesus was an intercessor. The Syrophoenician woman who would not stop advocating for her daughter was an intercessor. They were persistent and creative and willing to be embarrassed by the urgency of the need they were bringing. These prayers are for the intercessor — the person who is bringing someone they love to the feet of God and asking Him to do what only He can do.
A Prayer for a Family Member in an Impossible Situation
God, I am bringing my family member to You the way the friends brought the paralyzed man — through whatever opening is available, around whatever obstacle has to be navigated, with the specific determination of someone who believes that getting this person to the feet of Jesus is worth whatever the getting-there costs. I cannot fix what they are going through. I cannot reach the place in the situation where the fixing needs to happen. But You can. And I am asking You to do what the situation requires on behalf of someone I love who needs what only You can give. Move for them today. In Jesus’ name, amen.
A Prayer for a Child in an Impossible Situation
Heavenly Father, the impossible has found my child and the specific helplessness of a parent watching a child go through something that parental love cannot absorb or remove is one of the sharpest pains available to a human being. I would take this from them if taking were possible. It is not possible. So I am doing the only thing available to me that actually reaches the place where the situation lives — I am bringing them to You. Specifically. By name. With the specific, named, undeniable need that has driven me to my knees in the very genuine way that only a parent who is afraid for their child knows. Cover them. Move for them. In Jesus’ name, amen.
A Prayer for a Spouse Who Has No Way Through
Dear Lord, my spouse is in an impossible situation and watching from the inside of the same household is its own form of suffering — the proximity to someone I love going through something I cannot take from them, the shared life that means their crisis is also mine and their fear is also mine and the helplessness of not being able to do enough is one of the daily realities of this season. Move for my spouse in what I cannot move. Go into the interior of their situation where I do not have access. Be present in the specific fear they may not be showing me. And let the miracle that arrives be one we are telling together on the other side of this. In Jesus’ name, amen.
A Prayer for a Friend Who Has No One Else Praying
God, my friend is in an impossible situation and I want to stand in the gap as the intercessor for someone who may not have a community praying for them in the way they need right now — the person whose faith is thin or whose circumstances have isolated them or who does not know to bring this to You and is carrying it alone without the benefit of the prayer that reaches the place their effort cannot. I am bringing them. By name. With their situation. With the specific need I know about and the ones I do not. Cover what I cannot see from the outside. Intercede for the one whose own intercession is not yet available to them. In Jesus’ name, amen.
A Prayer for a Parent in Crisis
Heavenly Father, my parent is in a crisis that their age makes more significant and more frightening — the specific vulnerability of later life when the reserves are lower and the recovery from difficulty is longer and the specific things that are at stake have the weight of a whole life’s investment in them. I carry them in this prayer with the love that was given to me in every year when I was the one who needed and they were the one who provided. Go where I cannot go. Be present in the fear they are trying not to show their children. Move in the impossible situation with the tenderness of the God who formed them and who has not stopped loving them for a single moment of the life I have been privileged to share with them. In Jesus’ name, amen.
A Prayer for the Prodigal Who Is Running Out of Time
Dear Lord, someone I love is in the specific danger of a life that has been moving in the wrong direction for long enough that the wrong direction is producing consequences that are running out of margin to absorb. I am the parent at the window. I am watching the road. I am doing what the father in the parable did — scanning the horizon every day for the figure that looks like my person coming back from the far country before the far country has taken everything. Pursue them. Go after them in the ways I cannot reach. And let the running out of options be the thing that finally turns them toward home. In Jesus’ name, amen.
Miracle Prayers When Faith Is the Size of a Mustard Seed and That Has to Be Enough
There is a specific spiritual moment that almost no one talks about honestly — the moment when the faith that started out large and confident and full of the language of expectation has been pressed by the circumstances into something much smaller and much quieter and much more genuinely itself. The faith that remains after everything that was performance has been removed. After the inspiring phrases have worn smooth from overuse. After the easy confidence that the difficult season has not yet tested has been tested and found to contain less than it appeared. What remains in that moment is not always impressive. It is a mustard seed. It is a bruised reed. It is the I-believe-help-my-unbelief of the man in Mark 9 who was not sure he had enough but came to Jesus anyway because he had nowhere else to bring the need. Jesus did not ask for a better mustard seed. He asked for the one that was there.
A Prayer With the Faith That Remains After the Season Has Taken Most of It
Dear Lord, this is not the faith I had at the beginning of this situation. That faith was fuller and louder and more fluent in the language of believing for the miracle without apparent cost. What I have now is what is left after the cost has been paid — thinner, quieter, stripped of the performance and the easy confidence and the inspiring framework and genuinely mine in a way the earlier version perhaps was not entirely. I am bringing this version to You. The small, honest, still-here version. The one that keeps showing up not because the showing up is triumphant but because stopping seems like the greater failure. Meet the thin faith. Do the large thing. In Jesus’ name, amen.
A Prayer When Doubt and Faith Are Both Present
God, I want to pray the prayer that the man in Mark 9 prayed because it is the most honest prayer in the Gospels and it is the exact condition I am in — I believe, help my unbelief. Not one or the other. Both, simultaneously, in the same interior, in genuine tension with each other rather than the one cleanly defeating the other in the way the inspirational narrative suggests it should. The faith is real. The doubt is also real. And I am bringing both of them to You because You made clear through that specific interaction that the person who comes with the mixture is not turned away while the mixture is sorted out. You helped the unbelief first. Help mine. In Jesus’ name, amen.
A Prayer for the Faith to Act Before the Evidence Arrives
Heavenly Father, the kind of faith this miracle requires is the kind that acts before the evidence has appeared — the taking of the step before the ground has become visible under it, the speaking of the thing into being before the being has materialized, the walking toward the sea before the parting has happened. That faith is not cautious. It is not reasonable by the standards available to it. It is the faith of Peter stepping out of the boat and the faith of the priests stepping into the Jordan and the faith of the woman reaching through the crowd to touch the hem. Let me have that faith today. The specific, embodied, this-is-going-to-be-either-faith-or-foolishness faith that the miracle requires before it arrives. In Jesus’ name, amen.
A Prayer When the Waiting Has Refined the Asking
Dear Lord, the prayer has changed shape over the time I have been praying it — not because the need has changed but because I have changed inside the waiting. What started as a specific demand has become a surrender and back again to the asking but in a different key. The asking is more honest now. More willing to hold the outcome loosely while still bringing the request with everything I have. I believe You can. I trust You with whether You will. And I am placing both of those things in the same prayer without letting either one cancel the other — the bold request and the open hand, together, because that is what the long season has taught me and I believe it is what the prayer that finally reaches something looks like. In Jesus’ name, amen.
A Prayer for the Courage to Keep Asking
God, there is a specific weariness that arrives in the sustained asking — the moment when the prayer begins to feel like it is bouncing rather than arriving, when the consistency of the bringing becomes the consistency of the not-yet-answered and the gap between the asking and the receiving becomes something the faith has to reckon with rather than ignore. I am reckoning with it. And I am choosing to keep asking anyway. Not from denial — from the decision that the God I am bringing this to is worth the continued asking even when the continued asking is costing me something. You said ask and keep asking. You said seek and keep seeking. You did not put an expiration on the instruction. I am following it. In Jesus’ name, amen.
A Prayer From the Lowest Place
Heavenly Father, I want to bring this prayer from the lowest place rather than from the position I try to maintain because I believe the lowest place is where You have the most access. Not the position of defeat — the position of complete honesty about what is and is not within my power, the willingness to stop managing the appearance of spiritual competence long enough to say I am at the bottom of my own ability and I need the God who works from the bottom up. You said blessed are the poor in spirit. I am there. The kingdom of heaven belongs to people at this address. I am claiming the promise from the place the promise was made for. In Jesus’ name, amen.
Miracle Prayers in the Darkest Hour Before the Morning
There is a reason the Scripture returns again and again to the specific timing of midnight and the third watch of the night and the three days in the tomb. The darkest hour is not a literary metaphor — it is a real and specific experience that the people of faith have documented across every century of the tradition. The disciples were in the middle of the sea at the fourth watch of the night when Jesus came walking on the water. Paul and Silas were in the deepest part of the prison at midnight when the earthquake came. The women went to the tomb before sunrise on the third day. God has a specific affinity for the darkest hour that is not coincidental — He does not arrive after things have already begun to improve. He arrives in the dark, before the light has given any evidence that it is coming, and the arriving itself is the first light. If you are in the darkest hour — the miracle has not passed you by. You may be in exactly the right position to witness what comes next.
A Prayer at the Bottom of the Night
Dear Lord, it is the darkest part of the night and the fear that the daylight manages at a distance has moved in completely. The defenses are low and the rational perspective that the daytime provides has gone quiet and what is present in full is the worst version of the situation — the specific, four-wall, nothing-else-in-the-room weight of what I am going through at the hour when the weight is most honest about its actual size. Be here. Not in the morning when things look different — now, in the exact dark, in the specific hour that belongs to the most unguarded version of the fear. You have always come in the dark before the light does. Come in this dark. In Jesus’ name, amen.
A Prayer From Inside the Three Days
God, Lazarus was in the tomb four days and the people who loved him had already moved past the hope that something could be done. The professional mourners had arrived. The stone was sealed. The grieving had begun. And Jesus was on His way and the miracle was already certain from His perspective even as the situation was past certain from theirs. I am in the three days right now. The part where the stone is sealed and the mourners have settled in and the earthly hope has done its honest accounting and come up empty. I am choosing to believe I am in the three days and not the permanent state. The fourth day is coming. You are on Your way. In Jesus’ name, amen.
A Prayer in the Waiting Room of the Miracle
Heavenly Father, the miracle has not yet arrived but I am going to act as someone who is in the waiting room of it — the specific, prepared, I-believe-this-is-where-I-am posture of a person who has not received the miracle yet and who is treating the waiting as proximity rather than denial. You keep people in the waiting room for reasons that become clear from the other side — the character being formed that the comfortable life was not forming, the dependence being established that the successful life was obscuring, the testimony being prepared that the easy miracle would not have produced. I am in the waiting room. I am not leaving. I am preparing to receive what is being prepared for me. In Jesus’ name, amen.
A Prayer When the Night Is the Longest It Has Ever Been
Dear Lord, this is the longest night I have been in. Not physically longest — the kind where the specific combination of fear and uncertainty and the weight of what is unresolved makes the hours move with a resistance that ordinary nights do not have. I have been through hard nights before and the morning came and I am standing on that record tonight as the evidence that the morning is coming again. You made the night and You made the morning and You are the God of both — not the God who is available when the conditions are comfortable but the God who inhabits the darkness and calls the light out of it. Call the light out of this. In Jesus’ name, amen.
A Prayer of Worship Before the Evidence of the Morning
God, I am going to worship You before the evidence is visible. Not because the situation has improved — it has not. Not because the miracle has arrived — it has not. But because the Jehoshaphat principle is real — that the army of worshippers who went out before the battle found the enemy already defeated when they arrived. Praise goes first. Worship precedes the breakthrough in the biblical record consistently enough that I am willing to take it seriously as a posture rather than a feeling. I praise You in the dark. I worship in the before. I declare Your goodness before the morning has given me any evidence in the natural that the goodness is working. You are good. You are faithful. The morning is coming. In Jesus’ name, amen.
Miracle Prayers of Surrender, Testimony, and Gratitude
The miracle prayer that arrives at its full maturity is the one that holds everything simultaneously — the bold asking that refuses to accept impossibility as final, the surrendered trust that releases the outcome to the God who sees what the asker cannot see, and the gratitude that runs both before and after the miracle because it is directed at a God whose character is the reason for the gratitude rather than the outcome alone. These final prayers are for that maturity. For the person who has been in the impossible long enough to know that the God they are bringing it to is worth trusting regardless of what the situation produces, and who is choosing to say so even while the situation is still in process and the outcome is still unknown and the miracle has not yet materialized in the visible world where miracles are required.
A Prayer to Hold the Impossible With Open Hands
Dear Lord, I want the miracle I am asking for — specifically, genuinely, with the full desire of a person who understands what is at stake and is asking without apology for the best possible outcome. And I am choosing to hold it with open hands. Not because I am indifferent to whether it comes — I am not indifferent. But because I have decided that the God who holds what I release holds it better than I hold what I keep, and because the open hand is the hand that can receive what the clenched one cannot. I am asking with everything. I am releasing with trust. Both at the same time. Both real. In Jesus’ name, amen.
A Prayer of Trust When the Miracle Has Not Come
Heavenly Father, I am going to say what faith requires of me in this moment even though what faith requires costs something when the evidence is not cooperating. You are good. Not good in the way that is contingent on the miracle arriving as requested, not good in the way that needs my circumstances to confirm it — good in the absolute, permanent, nothing-about-my-situation-changes-this way that belongs to Your character rather than to my evaluation of Your performance. I know this. I know it when the feeling is not producing it. And I am choosing to stand on what I know rather than what the situation is currently generating in my feelings about the situation. You are good. That is the ground. In Jesus’ name, amen.
A Prayer for the Testimony That Is Being Prepared
God, I want to say something about the other side of this — not because I can see it yet, but because I believe it exists and because treating it as real before it has materialized is part of what faith is. There is a testimony being prepared in this situation. There is a story that will be told because of what is being survived and what will be overcome and what will arrive from a direction that no one was watching because the direction was Yours rather than the obvious one. I am asking for the miracle. I am also asking to be the person whose testimony reaches the person who is in the same impossible place in five years and who needs to know that it was survivable. Let the story matter beyond me. In Jesus’ name, amen.
A Prayer for Someone Else to Know God Is Possible Through This
Heavenly Father, the miracle I am asking for is not only for me. Let what You do in this situation be something that speaks to the watching people — the ones who are adjacent to this impossibility and who are forming their own theology of whether God is real and whether prayer reaches anything and whether a person in a desperate situation is actually accompanied or actually alone. Let the people watching see something in how this resolves that makes a case for You. Not for my reputation — for Yours. Let the impossible thing become the undeniable evidence that reaches the person who needed exactly this proof to move from the edge of believing to the interior of it. In Jesus’ name, amen.
A Prayer of Gratitude Before the Miracle Has Arrived
Dear Lord, I want to practice the gratitude that belongs to someone who expects to receive what they are asking for — the thank-You that precedes the receiving, the expression of the faith that acts as if the miracle is already on its way because I believe it is already on its way. Thank You for what You are doing in this situation that I cannot see yet. Thank You for the provision that is being prepared. The healing that is in process. The restoration that is already in motion in the places I cannot monitor. The door that is being unlocked from the other side while I am still standing in front of it. I receive it before I see it. That is what faith looks like from the outside of the miracle. In Jesus’ name, amen.
A Prayer of Gratitude When the Miracle Comes
God, it came. And I want to make this prayer a full, complete, the-rest-of-the-requests-can-wait stop of genuine acknowledgment rather than a brief note of thanks on the way to the next thing. You moved in the impossible. You showed up at the place where every other option had ended. You did the thing that the word impossible was being used to describe and the word is not applicable anymore and I saw it and I know where it came from and I am not moving past this moment until the gratitude is as complete as the miracle that produced it. You are the God of the impossible. I am the person who needed the impossible. And this is the story I will tell for the rest of my life. In Jesus’ name, amen.
A Closing Prayer — When Nothing Else Is Left Except the God Who Is Everything
Dear Lord, I have come to the end of everything this situation gave me to work with and discovered — the way that people who arrive here always discover — that the end of everything else is not the end of You. You were here before I ran out of options. You were here through every option I tried that did not work. You were here in the accumulation of the closed doors and the spent resources and the exhausted effort and the specific, named, undeniable impossibility that drove me to this prayer. You have been here the whole time, waiting at the end of the rope for the person who finally lets go of the rope — not to fall, but to find that the God who was below the rope is sufficient and was always sufficient and was only made visible when the rope ran out. I am at the end of the rope. You are here. That is enough. That has always been enough. Do what only You do in the places where nothing else is left. Come into the impossible. Speak to what is dead. Move what has not moved. Open what has been sealed. Make a way where every available path has proven itself to be a wall. You are the God who makes ways in the wilderness and rivers in the desert and who called the whole world into existence from the nothing that preceded it and who is not finished making things from nothing. Make something from this. Let the nothing that is left be the beginning of what only You can build. In Jesus’ name, amen.
