A lot of times when we think of miracles we think of the BIG pie in the sky miracles: parting of the Red Sea, miraculous healings, walking on water. So I think it tends to make us think that miracles only happened in Biblical times or at the very least they rarely happen today. I have found however that it’s the seemingly small miracles that are a BIG.
I have a receipt on my fridge to remind me of God’s miracles. A couple of years ago we were going through some financial trials and we had NO money in our account- I mean a big zero! I had just started my first Book study and I was getting reimbursed for the books. It came out to an odd amount. One of the ladies gave me an even amount and told me to keep the change (it came out to a couple of dollars).
The next morning, my daughter who was in kindergarten at the time, was supposed to bring in several apples to her class so they could make applesauce. I had completely forgot about this and knew we didn’t even have the money for that! I suddenly remembered that I had a couple extra dollars from the night before! God had remembered and knew that my little girl needed apples so she could make applesauce. This small miracle was such a big deal to me and it reminded me of how intimately God knows us- down to the smallest detail.
Miracles happen every day. Sometimes they are too “small” to see.
