We pray for miracles to happen: cancer to be cured, marriages to heal, soldiers to return, even a passing grade on an exam. Without the clear and powerful presence of God, we know that outcome will not be what we want or need. Have you ever been a part of or seen one of God’s miracles?

Two years ago I was asked to lead a funeral for a friend whose husband took his own life. Everyone was in shock, angry, and in pain. As the service approached, the family began to attack one another and me as well. I searched and prayed for wisdom. I called to say I would not do the funeral. I let it go completely in God’s hands and not in mine. What God did next was a miracle. Healing and forgiveness, grace and mercy, love and understanding began to fill this family! Wow!

Sometimes we doubt it. But God is always at work, and when we witness or even participate in that work, life is good … really good!
