Throughout my life I always hoped that a miracle could occur for me, but would watch others have miracles happen for them. Soon I would become the pessimist and start to think that miracles were really only situations that others were able to make happen in their own lives because of determination as opposed to the divine gifts that I always thought miracles were. Miracles didn't happen to me.
Was it something I had done that God would not send a miracle my way? I even began to look for the little things in my life, hoping that in some way God would have put a miracle in there somewhere. Was I just not looking close enough or was I hoping to hard?
Today I am going to work on believing that miracles can still happen to me. Believing that anything can happen is important. I know that God loves me so I have to trust that God will allow me a miracle when the time is right. Regardless though, we have to do our part in helping make miracles occur. We have to have faith. We have to not give up. We have to believe. That will be my motto today.
A miracle is defined as an effect or extraordinary event in the physical world that surpasses all known human or natural powers and is ascribed to a supernatural cause.
ReplyDeleteAccording to that definition, we have all had so many miracles already in our lives. And probably most of them we don't even know about. I truly believe that it is a miracle that I lived past the age of 22 years old. And what about all those times when I did screw up, like when driving a car, and have a near miss. An angel might have grabbed my steering wheel and pushed it a little to the right to avoid a crash. Who knows, but they are happening all around us whether we know it or not, when we really need them, (like to save my life). They are happening, and I believe that miracles will happen when the time is right.
