Who Needs a Miracle?

Do you need a miracle today?

I do!

I opened Streams in the Desert by Mrs. Charles Cowan,

and this is what I read from the August 4 entry:

"And Jesus lifted his eyes,

and said, "Father, I thank Thee that Thou

has heard me." (John 11:41)

This is a very strange and unusual order.

Lazarus is still in the grave,

and the thanksgiving precedes

the miracle of resurrection."

Who thinks of praising God

before the answer is given?

Who thinks of sounding the horn 

before the victory is won?

"Praise is really the most vital

preparatory ministry

to the working of miracles.

Miracles are wrought by spiritual power.

Spiritual power is always proportioned

to our faith."

(Streams in the Desert)

My mother is in need of healing.

She is having a difficult time right now.

I would appreciate it if you

thank and praise God with me 

for the miracle I am expecting!

Every week I choose one wonderful visitor

who leaves a comment

to receive an ATC from me.

I know it takes so much time and effort

to leave a comment

and I appreciate it soooo much!

This week,

Random.org chose

 #3, La Abela , a woman who talks to herself,

as she claims, and draws amazingly

with charcoal and graphite.
