The Saga of Prosperous Snow Continues |
Wednesday, January 25, 2017 “There are only two ways to live your life. One is as though nothing is a miracle. The other is as though everything is a miracle.” Albert Einstein The War Chest Wednesday prompt for "30-Day Blogging Challenge ON HIATUS" Do you believe in miracles? Speculate on your idea of a miracle you'd like to see happen. Miracles in Everyday Life Do I believe in miracles? Yes! The problem many people have is their definition of miracles. In the Oxford dictionary one of the definitions of miracle is "An extraordinary and welcome event that is not explicable by natural or scientific laws and is therefore attributed to a divine agency" or "A remarkable event or development that brings very welcome consequences".1 The problem with these definitions is that they prevent people from recognizing that life itself is a miracle. Since life is a miracle then miracles happen every day in everyone's life, but because of the definitions we use we can't see them and, when we can't see them, we don't recognize them for what they are. O thou kind Lord please open my heart and mind to see the miracles that are occurring in my life today. The "Blog City ~ Every Blogger's Paradise" prompt for Day 1051 Kind Heart, Brave Mind, Fierce Spirit Use these words anyway you like in today's entry. Prayer for a Kind Heart O Lord, O Lord, give me a brave mind so that I may search for truth independently. O Lord, give me a fierce spirit so that I may stand firm in thy covenant against all opposition and oppression. Footnotes |
