Miracles
Some people don't believe miracles still happen today, but I believe they do. All you have to do is look to see them. Miracles happen every single day. You can see it in nature, in the birth of the child, and God's healing hand. Recently some friends of ours had a very sick baby. The doctors had given her a 15% chance of survival through the night. Each day she woke up after that was a miracle. It was a testament to all the people who were praying on her behalf.
It's almost as if you don't believe in miracles, what's the point of praying? When we pray, oftentimes we ask God to do the unbelievable, something we puny humans can't do on our own. We want God to do big things, but do we believe that He can? That e will?
The Bible is full of miracles in both the old and the New Testament. God parted the Red Sea so the Israelites could walk across on dry ground. He made a donkey speak. He made barren women mothers. The New Testament is full of healings – the woman with the issue of blood, the man full of demons, and more than one person was raised from the dead.
It's true that we may not see miracles of this caliber happening today, that's also where our faith comes in. Sometimes we have to put aside the physical realities that blind us to see the spiritual truth of God working in and around us.
If you are reading this, you're a miracle. If you knew all the odds it took for you to even be conceived, you would wonder at how anyone is here.
Have you ever experienced a miracle yourself or been witness to one? I would love to hear about how God has been working in your life. Please share it in the comments.
