Running with Jesus  

Acts 9:35 "And all that dwelt at Lydda and Saron saw him, and turned to the Lord."

     Peter has arrived at a town called Lydda and God is doing a mighty work. Peter performs many miracles in this place. First a man sick 8 years with Palsy and a woman called Dorcus dies and Peter prays and she is raised up. News traveled all over about the miracles and many believed on the Lord. 

     I can't help but remember the words of Jesus to Thomas who said he wouldn't believe unless he saw Jesus hands. Jesus told him after he showed His hand that it is more blessed to believe and not see.

     Many people today are looking for a miracle or a sign to believe. Well God has chosen the foolishness of preaching of the gospel to bring souls into His kingdom. We do see modern day miracles but God knew man would make idols of men and worship the creature rather than worshipping Him. My sister is a miracle surviving her wreck and being able to walk again. But friend when it comes to salvation nothing compares to hearing John 3:16 " for God so loved the world, that who so ever believes in Him will not perish but have everlasting life." The greatest miracle was God giving His only son to redeem our souls. So don't miss the main miracle looking for an earthly miracle. Jesus is the miraculous son of God! Because of Him we can have a new birth and know God! 

 Father, we want to send up a shout and a praise for Jesus this morning. He is all we need for living. He is our comfort, our peacemaker, our provider, our deliverer, our anchor, a present help in trouble, our defense attorney, our friend, our redeemer, and our only hope for eternity! 

       Do you have the miracle? If not inbox me and I will tell you how!

Tomorrow: Dates on our tombstone, can't wait! See you in the morning!
