If I look at all that is wrong in the world, I could be upset a lot of the time, right?
I have to remember the miracles that I have experienced in my life to lift my thinking and stay in joy day by day. One being, how I was pretty much “struck sober” 5,961 days ago. I say struck sober, because it was an instantaneous lifting of the obsession for alcohol. It was a miracle because I had tried to stop drinking over and over again for many years. When I finally surrendered to God, and asked Him to help me, He lifted that obsession.
Not—“I want you, God, to get me sober, but I don’t really want to stop drinking...”—
But, truly, “Ok, God, I am finished with this insanity, I am ready for you to take it.”
On my knees. Praying. Gone.
When days went by without drinking, then weeks, then years—I realized this was a miracle.
Evidence that God was real.
It opened my eyes to LOOK for the evidence of God’s miracles all around me. So, to lift me from a funk, I just have to gather evidence. It is there. All I have to do is look to confirm—
A beautiful sunrise. a hummingbird’s wings flapping right in front of me. The waves constantly and consistently crashing on the shore. Watching a friend get sober and stay sober. A child being born. Death happening and not having to drink over it and showing up for another who needs me. Telling my truth and having that make a difference for someone else today.
If you are looking for evidence to NOT believe that God is doing miracles, look around. You will find it.
If you are looking for the evidence TO BELIEVE that God is real and is doing miracles, all you have to do is open your eyes and look around.
You will find it.
I promise.
“Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you.”
