THE EVERYDAY MIRACLE

“We are not meant to be seen as God’s perfect, bright – shining examples, but to be seen as the everyday essence of ordinary life exhibiting the miracle of his grace.”     (Oswald Chambers – My Utmost for His Highest)  

Every day, I wake up in the morning, get out of bed, and go about the day.  Then, I go to bed at the end of the day.  Yet there’s a difference in these days.  I’m not the same person that I once was.  The days are more meaningful- more useful.  I live supported by God’s grace.

In the circumstances of the day, I am more helpful, kind, gracious, loving, and patient.  This has come about without my effort.  I surrendered my life to God, and he changed me into a nicer person.  He has been gracious to me. The result is that his grace courses through me and flows to others.  That is the everyday miracle of his grace.
