Today-- I fasted for a miracle

Today-- I fasted for a miracle.

I pled with the Lord,

Thy will be done,

But

If possible,

Could thy will include

A miracle?

Have miracles ceased because Christ hath ascended into heaven?

Today-- I prayed for a miracle.

I knelt down with the Lord,

Ask and ye shall receive,

And

I asked Him:

Could thy will include

A miracle--

please?

Have miracles ceased?

Today-- I pondered miracles.

I secluded myself with the Lord,

Seek and ye shall find,

And

A thought was opened unto me.

What I envision as a miracle may not come to pass. In my mind, the perfect miracle, the one I am seeking, materializes exactly as I seek it. Like a child opening a present at Christmas, my miracle comes directly from my list of requirements. My miracle has all the bells and whistles and it looks just like the advertisement I created in my head.

However, what God envisions as a miracle shall come to pass. In His mind, the perfect miracle, the one He is seeking to give, manifests exactly as He desires it. Like a parent giving a child a present at Christmas, His miracle isn’t on my list; it is something I didn’t consider, but after anxiously waiting, when I finally open it-- though surprised -- my miracle is the most personalized, handmade gift I have ever received. The miracle God gifts me is greater than what I had envisioned it would or could be.

Knock and it shall be opened unto you.

It is by faith that miracles are wrought.

Today--

I am fasting--

I am praying--

I am pondering--

I am asking--

I am seeking--

I am knocking--

For a miracle.

--- and I believe it shall be opened unto me.
