Miracles - Not a question but an expectation!

Don't just ask for miracles, expect miracles!

A week ago Maggie was complaining of pain in her upper neck, near her jaw.  I thought nothing of it, then.  I thought, maybe she slept on it wrong or moved in a position that pulled a muscle.  So I just told her that it would pass.  (Bad dad)

Last night I returned from a 3 day fasting and prayer time outside of Medellin.  God, not only gave me a renewed focus, He encouraged me to ask expectingly and not just ask and wait.  God wants the best for us and He gives generously.  So, when I returned, Maggie was still complaining of pain but she now had a lump in her neck.  Tona had been looking for a doctor that she could take Maggie to.  Remembering what God said, I called Maggie for family prayer.  I prayed for her and then we all prayed for her and the day.  She woke up this morning still complaining of pain.  I called her over.  I told Maggie that God calls us to pray without ceasing, that means if He hasn't answered us, we keep praying until He does.  Tona and I laid hands on her and prayed again.  When I asked Maggie how she felt, she said, "I don't feel anything."  So I asked her if she could still feel the lump.  She said, "No, it's gone!"

That was a perfect time for a big hug and great time for God to show Himself to Maggie.

Thank you, Lord, for being awesome!

Looking

It's never to late to look to the future,
Never to soon to reflect on the past,
But it's most important to keep your eyes on the Prize!

So we fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen, since what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal.
