MONDAY THOUGHT 2/11/08

I think sometimes we truly do miss the forest for the trees.  We see miracles every day and — for that very reason — we take them for granted.  At least I do. 
 
I mean, if God — who made all those logical, scientific rules  — can transform an ugly, creeping caterpillar into a drop-dead gorgeous and graceful  butterfly; if He can transform the darkest night into the brightest day, and do it within 12 hours; if He can transform the coldest, most bitter winter into the warmest, soul-warming summer … well, doesn’t it just follow that He can do anything?
 
My point:  God can transform any of us into what we want to become.  He can turn sinners into saints, losers into winners, the spiritually numb into passionate believers.  Anything is possible.  So, enjoy this day, and rejoice in God’s transforming blessings. — jri
