Where Are You Looking for Answers, friend?

Publication date Jun 11, 2023

This week is simply about you, about those three minutes you take each day to check where your heart is, what you’re thinking, and whether you are aware of God's presence in your life—which really can change everything. I will give you some personal examples of this to make clear the simple possibility of experiencing God in everyday situations.

You are important to me. Very important. That's why I'm very grateful for this opportunity to be connected with you daily through "A Miracle Every Day", friend! You can even reply directly to this email, which many do. These letters will be answered by our wonderful team full of love, because I would not be able to do all this alone. 

But you can be sure that I love to know what moves you. I love to pray for you! Yes, because YOU are important to me! Lately, I have noticed that many people carry great worries and fears about the future, which is very understandable in these turbulent times.

Just recently I said to my friend: "Without God I don't know how I would react to this time. I wouldn’t know how to get through this without Him."

That is the crucial difference: we have God, friend! A WONDERFUL God! And knowing God, He delights in proving to us through such challenging situations that truly NOTHING is impossible for Him!

While you may call your particular circumstances challenging, God sees them as a way to show His power. Learn to see God as He is, and you will realize how anything is possible for Him!

Do you know how you learn that? By facing situations together with God. Every time your worries get too much for you, pull back for a moment and seek your God who is greater. Every time the news frightens you, withdraw for a moment and seek your God who calms you and gives you peace.

There is nothing that God doesn't have an answer for, even though you may not always know what that answer is. Look to Him for His peace. He is the One who knows about your worries and therefore says:

"I have told you these things, so that in me you may have peace. In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world.” (John 16:33 NIV)

You are a miracle!
