The Square Root of Impossible…Is God!
Jesus looked at them and said, "With man this is impossible, but with God all things are possible." --- Matthew 19:26

As best as I can explain it - I will tell you that the square root of a number is a value (number) that - when multiplied by itself - gives the number. A square root can either be positive or negative. For example, if we multiplied 4x4 it would equal 16, which shows us that the square root of 16 is 4. This is a positive square root. But if we multiply 0x0 (or 0 times any other number for that matter)  the result will always be zero - negative. So what scriptural wisdom can this mathematical lesson provide for us spiritually? I am so glad you asked! We have a square root in our lives in the form of a Person. He is God. He takes you, me, and the circumstances in our lives that are impossible for us to do on our own, and He multiplies them by His power to make the impossible possible! God alone is the square root of all the possibilities we can experience in our lives! We are who we are because He is the source and the root of our existence.  God is the beginning and end of all creation. For those of us who genuinely believe in Him - that's proof enough that He alone makes all things possible!
