Miracles

Have you ever witnessed a miracle? How did you respond? Was there joy and amazement or intense skepticism? I've had two separate incidents in my life where I was in bad weather and completely lost control of my vehicle on the highway in the vicinity of other vehicles, including tractor-trailers, and I walked away without a scratch on my body and with minimal damage to my car each time. There is probably some scientific explanation for each, but isn't the true miracle the fact that there is a God who created us and watches over our comings and goings? Isn't it a profound mystery that He is paying attention to what's ahead of us even when we are not? Albert Einstein said, "There are two ways to live your life. One is as though nothing is a miracle; the other is as though everything is a miracle". Since our very breaths are dependent on God's design, His creation, and His permission, I'm probably closer to believing everything is a miracle than nothing is. Do we recognize God's miraculous power? This week at Friendship, we'll talk about God's power and how it was revealed through the ministry of Jesus and His miracles, and then what it means for us as the Church. Join us this weekend and be inspired to experience God's power anew in your life through faith and obedience!
