Miracles

When I read the Bible and see all the things that Jesus did, I tend to wonder why such amazing things don’t happen today. Jesus healed lepers, cured the blind, and raised people from the dead. If God really wanted us to believe, wouldn’t it be easy for Him to perform a few miracles and make everyone believe at once?

The fact is, there are miracles happening all around us. What defines a miracle? I personally consider anything that God gives me as a miracle. Whether it be something physical, like food or helping me get through an exam, or more importantly a spiritual miracle like God extending His grace to me.

God sent us to this earth to be miracles too. It’s our job to help others and help cultivate their faith. So with God doing so much in our own lives, why are we searching for more? Do we need Jesus to come give sight to a blind man or feed thousands with a little fish and bread? I hope your answer to this question is the same as mine, a huge no. Faith is seeing what God has done in our lives and trusting that He will never turn His back on us. The fact that He never will is the greatest miracle in history.

I pray that God makes each and every one of you into a living miracle that lives and breathes the love of the Savior. Look around you today and see all that God has done and realize that the greatest miracles are sometimes the ones that we take for granted.

I [Jesus]tell you the truth, anyone who has faith in me will do what I have been doing. He will do even greater things than these, because I am going to the Father. And I will do whatever you ask in my name, so that the Son may bring glory to the Father. You may ask me for anything in my name, and I will do it. John 14:12-14
