If we know that [God] listens to whatever we ask, we know that we have received what we asked from him. – 1 John 5:15 (CEB)
Doña Bertitha had already lost several children. Now she looked at her tiny infant daughter — born at six months gestation, anemic, suffering from a heart condition, and having already received a blood transfusion. Doctors told Bertitha that if her daughter survived, she would have serious health challenges. But Bertitha’s father-in-law Don Rafael shared the word of God with her and said: “Believe, and it shall be done!” Holding hands, they prayed on their knees. Bertitha held fast to the promise of a miracle.
Day by day that miracle began to unfold, much to the surprise of the medical staff.
This is my life story. I was that child. I grew up and became a faithful follower of Christ. Later, I cared for my parents and my own children, and now I rejoice at seeing my grandchildren thrive. Throughout my life I have experienced many miracles and continue to believe in God’s word.
Imagine the possibilities if we all opened our hearts and minds to God’s promises and miracles!
Thought for the Day
God can work miracles.
