Thoughts for another day

Today's verse: Job 9:10. Which doeth great things past finding out; yea, and wonders without number. (KJV)

(Pls. read the above before you read further.  Thanks)

In our lifetime, we’ve seen countless miracles of God and for the skeptics I’d say, if you haven’t encountered one, then touch your heart and you’ll hear it beating; and you know it’s a miracle for what can move without God’s intervention?  And the heart beats and beats until our last breath.  This and many more miracles are just part of the work God performs day in and day out in the lives of zillions of creatures and we don’t know even a dot of it, for what can you count when you don’t know the extent to which His hand is spread in working of a wonder, a miracle, here and there.

To those who’re tuned to God however, He grants not only to see the wonders He performs day in and day out, but He also grants their requests with a miracle to make it real.  To the sick He gives back health; to the homeless, He provides comfort and to those who have nothing to eat, He even sets food baskets at the doorstep with no one accompanying them!  To us who believe in His Precious Son, Jesus Christ, He even grants the purging of sin, cleaning up our souls snow white even though it was scarlet red and dirty.  Only God can clean thus and none can tar what God cleans.

As we look at our difficulties, we also look up and see our God; Almighty, powerful, Loving and above all, merciful.  His mercy is upon us by which He sentenced His Son Jesus Christ, to die in our place, granting us the greatest miracle of being called ‘His child,’ which we are and by which we also inherit all that is His.  So I rejoice and notice His beautiful hand working in my favor, doing things here, there and everywhere; amazing things that can’t be explained but by His hand’s work.  Everything I need is delivered by Him and He raises my status to that of His favored child and in that I’m blessed and I’ll also be a blessing to those who sit unloved, uncared and underprivileged, so they too experience His manifold miracles in their lives.  And soon, because we believed, we’ll see his great work in our lives; redemption of many souls, transformed into God’s children, and this if we but agree to His will and offer ourselves up to His work.
