A Word of Thanks and Praise!

God's Miracles...

I suppose on ordinary days the requirements of life--work, school, parenting and such--get in the way of recognizing the wonder of God and the miracles and blessings he brings to each day. And then life brings a circumstance so much greater than the daily grind that we set aside everything else and we are truly blessed. This week so many--a faithful loving husband, five daughters loved in so many ways, thirteen (and one-half!) grandchildren, a Mom & Dad, three sisters, a brother, an extended family too great to describe and so many dear, dear friends--came together in prayer for a life so precious to us all...Donna, God's faithful servant needed a miracle. I think in the presence of miracles words fail us, but God blessed me with this video today and I wanted to share it with you who have been so faithful in your prayers and loving care.

All have prayed and from those prayers God's miracle came to us. Some sent money--know that your gifts have been used to bring a loved one to Donna's side; others stocked pantries and because of your gift those loved ones were able to spend every possible minute caring for or visiting with Donna instead of shopping and putting away groceries; still others provided home cooked meals lovingly packaged for quick reheats so that everyone here in Durham could sit down at the family dinner table for the fellowship, cleansing and rejoicing so very needed.

One God, still in the business of miracles. I hope that when the ordinary days return I will always take the time to feel the thunder of God's power and hear the glory of heavenly rejoicing each time the sun rises or storms clear. Oh, Praise Him.
