We are always waiting for the “big things” to happen
to us so that we can bare our testimonies that God truly lives, what of the “little
things “ that keeps us going each day? A lady had a very loving husband who was
the toast of all single women in the neighbourhood where they lived .This lady
had no child and she wanted one so badly. She not being able to have a child
begun to affect her so badly that it was tearing her marriage apart. Her only
focus was how to get this “miracle” baby. She felt she has been neglected by
God and grew so distance from her family and of course she neglected her duties
at home. She was breaking the heart of her family and
most importantly her husband. Thereafter,
her husband was diagnosed of Cancer. She began to see things differently.” Life
“had become important to her than anything else. She prayed fervently for God
to heal her dying husband. Unfortunately, her husband lost the battle with
cancer and died. After her husband’s death, she realized how she had not been
thankful enough to God for all the wonderful things around her and most
importantly for “life”.
You either live by the fact that every day is a
miracle or every day is no miracle. Let’s learn to appreciate the little things
we have, for God is everywhere working miracles for us. Let us thank God when
we get up in the morning, when we drop our kids off at school, when we arrive
safely at work, when we get back home safely. Let us look at our families, coworkers,
friends and neighbours and thank God for this wonderful people He has given us
to affect each other’s lives. Life is indeed a blessing.
“Bless
the Lord, O my soul and forget not all His benefits”
Psalm 103:2
