"Unexpected Miracles"

A Blast From The Word

“Unexpected Miracles”

1 John 3:1
How great is the love the Father has lavished on us, that we should be called children of God! And that is what we are!........
While visiting a local nursing home this week, I was privileged to hear and witness the sweetest song ever uttered. One precious little lady was sitting on one couch, her hair was white and she was slumped over so that you could not see all of her and she was dressed in a pink Snuggy. Another little lady was sitting on the other couch and two more little ladies were roaming around in their wheel chairs. A visitor came in the door and sat down with this particular little lady and ask her if she was ready to sing. Then she began singing Beulah Land. This little lady chimed in with the clearest harmony voice I had ever heard. Turning around I looked straight into the brightest most content eyes I had not seen in a long time. The visitor ask her what else she would like to sing. By now I was clapping and telling her what a wonderful voice she had. She said, “Well, I don’t sing as good as I used too.” She looked down thinking about her song she wanted to pick. All of a sudden she looked up and looked straight into my eyes and smiled. She started to sing, “There’s a land that is fairer than day. And by faith we can see it afar, for the Father waits over the way, To prepare us a dwelling place there.” With all that was within me and with tears streaming down my face, I thanked her. I felt like I had just looked into the face of Jesus. So moved and so thankful to the Dear Lord I had received this blessing. I knew this was a divine meeting of the souls put together by God Himself. I was soooooo changed and will never forget. It was like she new this “land fairer than day” was just around the corner.

Say: Dear Lord, of Heaven and Earth, I thank You for Your many blessings above and beyond my needs. Thank You for the little blessing that are really miracles. I praise and worship You. Forgive me when I don’t trust and serve You the way I should. Make me a blessing to others. Amen
