Another Morning, Another Miracle 

Ho hum.  I’ve seen more miracles than I can shake a stick at.  You have, too, I’m sure.  I mean, think about it:  Hopelessly broken relationships restored.  Totally lost drug addicts and alcoholics now clean, sober and cherishing life like never before.  The birth of the smallest child growing and grown into full-blown adults.  Amazing.

It is the miracle of transformation, of new birth and new beginnings.  In many cases (second chances by the bucketful) it is the changing from a life of squander and destruction to one of hope and life.  It is the awakening of the tiniest of tiny seeds of something (care to hazard a guess what that is?) that brings forth a lush green spring after the barrenness of a dark, cold winter … not just literally, but in our hearts and in our souls.

My point:  We see miracles every day.  We are miracles.  Enjoy the blessings of this miraculous day. – jri

“What shall we say the kingdom of God is like,

or what parable shall use to describe it?  It is

like a mustard seed, which is the smallest

seed you plant in the ground.  Yet when

planted, it grows and becomes the largest of

all garden plants, with such big branches

that the birds of the air can perch in its shade.”
