John 6:30
They answered, “Show us a miraculous sign if you want us to believe in you. What can you do?”
Miracles do not have to be grand or mind blowing to be a miracle. God does many miracles in our lives daily but we fail to recognize them because our idea and understanding of what miracles are is flawed. Miracle in some definition is “an effect or extraordinary event in the physical world that surpasses all known human or natural powers and is ascribed to a supernatural cause. such an effect or event manifesting or considered as a work of God.” With this definition we see that any event that surpass human or natural powers falls into the category of miracle. Meaning that the very breath you’re breathing is a miracle. The simple yet profound fact that you slept last night and by grace your body continuously functioned and now in this moment you are awake with blood flowing through your body and the functionalities of your being still intact, proves that your presence on this earth, this very moment is a miracle from the Lord. That your body knows which the amount of blood each organ needs and the elements it need to supply to keep the body functioning is a Miracle of God.
Miracles aren’t necessarily things falling from the heavens or the dead coming back to life. Though these are all great miracles we must understand that our very lives are miracles and we ought to bless the name of the Lord daily for the Divine Miracle of our life. You are a miracle. You breath, your sight, your ability to think and reason is a miracle. Do not be deceived into thinking that you must experience something grandiose to consider it a miracle. Everything in your life is evidence of the grace of God. Therefore do not take anything for granted. Know that your very life a miracle of its own. Tackle everyday with new found joy knowing what God is doing in your life.
