He would just be so upset that they seemed to think that a week was gonna do it for everyone. He would say, “Revival? Revival? How about a walk, a real, every day walk with the Lord?!”

You see I believe miracles happen every single day of our lives but we’ve become blind to them. I have made it a goal to work very hard to see the miracles that happen around me, and there have been so many since I’ve been saved!

I used to very intentionally hide because I was afraid of everyone and everything. I don’t hide any more, I look forward to going out and seeing friends, and people I’ve never met. That’s a miracle.

I lived my life in darkness and despair. Every minute of my life was torturous. Now I wake up every morning and I’m so happy to have one more day before me. That’s a miracle.

I used to despise myself, every single aspect of what it was to be me. Now I recognize that I am a child of God. That’s a miracle!!!

I have watched the Lord change not only my heart and mind but the hearts and minds of friends and family, and that’s a miracle!!!

If I never get to experience one of those huge spectacular miracles, I’ll still be happy counting the ones that I do see around me, every single day. And there are so many!!

Maybe I have the ‘rah rah’ mentality. Hee hee. But our Lord is alive and he loves us and walks with us every moment of every day. And that is the biggest miracle of all.
