I can close my eyes and see all the events that are not a result of coincidence or luck. I am thinking of my aunt who survived a near fatal accident a month ago and was singing and praising God at our recent family reunion. Another miracle -- the birth of my niece - who against all odds survived a high risk surgery and now is being cradled in the arms of her mother. Or admiring the strength and fortitude of my dear cousins who are grieving the loss of their father and mother. In spite of these events, they are real testimonies of God's hand and presence in the mist of tragedy. John's childhood friend and college roommate also remains on my mind. Although he is unable to physically walk, he moves in other ways. The burns and bodily damage that he experienced was enough to kill any average person, but his faith in God is the "fuel" that ignites his presence. It is also inspiring to witness the faith and love of his wife and child as they remain strong and steadfast during challenging times. There are miracles all around us...there are miracles all around me.
If I am not careful, it is so easy to take God's presence and the miraculous wonders He orchestrates every day for granted. I just thank God for mainfesting Himself to me and others on a daily basis.
