OUR SMALLNESS+GOD'S GREATNESS=LIFE'S MIRACLES
OUR SMALLNESS+GOD'S GREATNESS=
LIFE'S MIRACLES
You don't have to READ any further
Than today's reading in Matthew
To KNOW what God can do
With our SMALL EFFORTS
Jesus takes seven loaves of bread
And a few fish=and FEEDS four thousand men
PLUS women and children
It makes me WONDER what MIRACLES
Jesus can perform with
Our small efforts
In today's world
“Jesus said to them,
'How MANY loaves do you have?'
'Seven'=they replied,
'And a few fish'” Matthew 15:34
What SMALL THINGS do you
Have to offer Jesus today?
Just IMAGINE with GOD'S GREATNESS=
What miracles Jesus can PERFORM
With them
THE GREATNESS OF GOD!
“GREAT is the Lord
And most WORTHY of praise
HIS GREATNESS=
No one can fathom” Psalm 145:3
“But Jesus rebuked the impure spirit
HEALED the boy
And gave him back
To his FATHER
And they were all AMAZED
At the GREATNESS OF GOD” Luke 9:42-43
What small gifts do you have
TO OFFER Jesus?
A KIND HEART=A willing spirit=
Jesus ASKS us to give them to him
And with that he CAN=and does
WORK MIRACLES
“I will REMEMBER
The deeds of the Lord;
YES=I will remember
YOUR MIRACLES=OF LONG AGO” Psalm 77:11
“You are the GOD
Who performs MIRACLES
You display your power
Among the peoples” Psalm 77:14
“I PERSEVERED in demonstrating
Among you
The marks of a true apostle
Including signs-wonders-and MIRACLES” 2 Corinthians 12:12
Yes-Jesus WORKED miracles
Through his apostles
We ARE his modern-day apostles
LET us offer what we have=
Our donations=our food=even our 2
SMALL COINS like the poor widow
Let us let Jesus take our SMALL EFFORTS=
Add his GREATNESS=
And PERFORM modern day miracles
IT JUST TAKES FAITH!
In the names of Jesus and his GLORIOUS=most HEAVENLY FATHER
