Ordinary Miracle

One of my favorite things is an extraordinary, everyday miracle.

I'm not speaking of Miracles of Biblical Proportion; rather the simple things that mean little to anyone else and the world to you, and that most people would scoff at and roll their eyes for my diminishing the word "miracle" to something so, w-e-l-l ....ordinary.

Perfect timing is an example. Sometimes perfect timing is just what you need to get over a hump or to increase your faith or to be encouraged. Perfect timing can be disguised as a song on the radio or a timely newspaper article or in words of wisdom from a friend. Perfect timing can be when a certain someone decides to send a special delivery.
Sometimes it's what we don't say that often hurts the most;
sometimes we hold back when we know there's something that needs saying, encouragement that will make a difference in the life of someone we love.

Don't let that be the case today, this week or even next month. With Christmas just around the corner, you're likely going to spend time with family or friends and I hope you'll speak life into them.

YOUR TURN:  Are you a celebrator of Everyday, Ordinary Miracles? Would you be willing to share a story with me? And would you accept my challenge to speak life, love affirmation, truth or forgiveness to someone who needs a touch of your grace?

Blessings
