Miracles…
September 26, 2007
I just read something that touched me. Dori wrote this today on this post (click to read entirety) :
I have had this scripture in mind all week: “I will meditate on all your works and consider all your mighty deeds. Your ways, O God, are holy. What god is so great as our God? You are the God who performs miracles; you display your power among the peoples.” (Psalm 77:12-14)
Now, I’m not a Greek student…, but when I look at the words in this scripture I notice a couple of things. The word “perform” means exactly what we think it means, but when I look up the word “miracles” I find that it means something extraordinary, wonderous, miraculous, but it also means “hard to understand thing.”
…His ways are not our ways — we will never completely understand. Here’s an “in pencil” thought: Perhaps during the times we understand Him the least is when He is performing His greatest miracles in our lives.
If I truly trust him…I will walk by faith. I will not wear myself out emotionally in doubt. I will not wear others out with my downcast-ness. I will be hopeful, expectant, living “as if”.
Lord, take me there!
PS: I just finished half of Leviticus. (Whew. Have mercy! That took all morning. Praise God…it’s only TWO DAYS. I WILL SURVIVE!)
