Is our
God no longer able to do these awesome miracles in 2015?
Or
In the
presence of our science driven society we no longer call them miracles?
Or
Do we
ask, except too little of our God and when God provides for us we attribute it
to something or someone else?
I had the
pleasure of listening to an Africa Mennonite talk about the miracles happening
in his small developing church.
These
were Old Testament fall on your face in fear and joy miracles. Water to wine, loaves and fishes miracles,
stuff!
You could
tell that he had had a close encounter of the Spiritual kind.
He had
been in the presence of God!
And what
did the group of North American men and women do with this knowledge? We offered polite applause at the end of his
sermon and asked questions about, the politics of the area, access to clean
water, health care and education.
No one
and I am included in that group jumped up and said praise God brother tell me
more about the miracles and God’s presence.
Children
understand the miraculous and can still see it in the world around them.
When did
we become willfully blind to God’s miracles?
How is it
we are more comfortable with a scientific answer or worse saying today's
miracles are found in our science?
We are
rich in all things compared to most of the rest of the world and so our faith
has to pass through the eye of the needle.
Our God
is able to do exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think.
Let’s
look to our children and grandchildren and seek to see the miracles of our Lord
through their eyes for I know they are there if I will only look with eyes
willing to see.
