Nothing is impossible for God. Nobody can describe His nature in words. Everything is possible for Him.
There lived at a certain place two yogis who were practicing spiritual discipline. The sage Narada was passing that way one day. Realizing who he was, one of the yogis said: 'You have just come from God Himself. What is He doing now?'
Narada replied, 'Why, I saw Him making camels and elephants pass and repass through the eye of a needle.'
At this the yogi said: 'Is that anything to wonder at? Everything is possible for God.' But the other yogi said: 'What? Making elephants pass through the eye of a needle - is that ever possible? You have never been to the Lord's dwelling-place.'
