EVERY TIME MIRACLE

By Sherry Meneley

YOU ARE THE GOD WHO PERFORMS MIRACLES; YOU DISPLAY YOUR POWER AMONG THE PEOPLES. [PSALM 77:14]

Miracles of awe and wonder; unexplained by science and reason.

Jesus’ miracles - healed, restored, fed, calmed, cast; and rose from a grave.

These are great and mighty; proclaiming the identity of the Son of God.

But what about the every-day miracles; the ones we experience and can forget to notice.

Every time the Bible details stories of Jesus healing others;

I’ve read a miracle.

Every time the sun rises at the break of day;

I’ve seen a miracle.

Every time a newborn cries at it’s first breath of air;

I’ve heard a miracle.

Every time I’m moved into worship by music;

I’ve felt a miracle.

Every time I’m able to forgive after so much hurt;

I’ve been part of a miracle.

Every time I‘ve held a delicate fragrant flower in my hands;

I’ve smelled a miracle.

Every time I’ve eaten a sweet and plump strawberry;

I’ve tasted a miracle.

Every time I pray and Your answer was yes;

I’ve witnessed a miracle.

God let me never forget Jesus’ miracles;

And let me never cease my wonder and awe at the miracles of Your creation.

QUESTION TO CONSIDER

What have you noticed lately that speaks of God to you; and do you see these things as miracles?

PRAYER

God, I’m thankful for the big miracles and so thankful for the smallest of miracles that I can see, smell, hear and touch every day.
