Daily Blessings

Miracles

THANK YOU, FATHER, FOR PLACING ME IN A WORLD OF MIRACLES. THE MIRACLE OF YOUR PRESENCE SURROUNDS ME, ENFOLDS ME, AND MAKES ALL THINGS POSSIBLE.

Do you believe in miracles? Jesus said, “He that believeth on me, the works that I do shall he do also.” Notice that he did not say, “the miracles that I do.” Jesus performed many acts that were called miracles because most observers did not understand the spiritual laws that made them possible. When the disciples grew in understanding and no longer saw such demonstrations as miracles, they, too, were able to do the works of Jesus.

We ought to accept miracles as perfectly natural. It is natural for God’s creations to be happy, healthy, and to have all that is needed for successful and effective living. By human standards, every answered prayer is a miracle, but by God’s standards answered prayer is natural.

Our so-called miracles are simply demonstrations of God’s love for us. The only miracle is love itself, that ever-present, all-powerful force by which God enfolds us, protects us, and draws us to himself.

We live in a world of miracles. Look for each miracle and see it as perfectly natural. Look beyond the outer event and see the power of love that allowed the miracle to take place. Give thanks for an ever-increasing awareness of God’s miracle-working power.

“For truly, I say to you, if you have faith like a grain of mustard seed, you will say to this mountain, ‘Move from here to there,’ and it will move, and nothing will be impossible for you.” (Matthew 17:20)

Transcript of a radio broadcast by Rev. Joyce Kramer, January 21, 2014.

What do you want out of life? Do you know? Few people have any real concrete picture of just what they want out of life. Consequently it seems that they live at the mercy of someone or something other than themselves. Thus we have the belief that we are the victim of things over which we have little or no control.

Each and every person is created with the ability and the power to determine his own future. Man is not at the whim of fate, luck, or chance. Neither is he created to be at the mercy of another person [ . . .]

The Joyce Kramer Ministries logo depicts a dogwood tree planted across the entrance to the church that Rev. Kramer founded in Virginia Beach. Transplanted from her brother’s property in Charlottesville, for eighteen months the tree seemed nothing more than a lifeless stick in the ground. Finally, on a Wednesday afternoon, the decision was made to dig it up, but the lawn maintenance man did not have a shovel with him. The next week, he said, he would come back and discard the dead tree. But that Sunday when Rev. Kramer arrived at church, she noticed a single leaf had appeared on the otherwise barren stick. They left the tree in place, and it grew into one of the most beautiful on the property. This flowering dogwood represents the message of Joyce Kramer Ministries: Growth is always possible; never give up.
