We're Surrounded!

Miracles are real. Like really real. Like so crazy real. Guys, MIRACLES ARE HAPPENING AROUND US CONSTANTLY! And oh how amazing your world can get when you realize this. 

My institute teacher recently encouraged us to take a closer look at our lives and acknowledge as many as we can. I've tried to keep a "miracle journal" to do this. There are so many freaking miracles surrounding us all the time. It's amazing. I have been reminded of how good God is, and how much He truly cares about us. The fact that we are all here, living, breathing, existing in this exhausting world is proof. 

I believe that we are more surrounded by miracles than we realize and if we take the time to notice them we will come closer to our Heavenly Father. If you think about it, biologically we are all crazy luck to even be alive. From conception to birth and all the other dangers in this world we should probably be dead. But here we are! All thanks to miracles. 

I believe our lives are made up of hundreds of little miracles all the time. The random person that compliments your clothes on a day when your self esteem needs some help-miracle. Listening to the little voice in your head that tells you to drive this way instead of that, unknowingly saving you from a crash-miracle. The fact that you decided to buy cereal the day before and then wake up late and being able to eat breakfast because you had said cereal-miracle. The chance you had to sit by someone new in class and you end up being best friends-miracle. Things as simple as having your hair turn out the way you want so you feel more comfortable for your big presentation-MIRACLE. 

So many miracles! And even more throughout the day that we don't even recognize. I believe that it is a miracle that you and I are here on earth, and I believe that there are things we will do in our lives that will be miracles to others. Why? Because God is good. He will never let us down. In all the trials we have there are miracles above and beyond. I believe that God puts us in places to be miracles for others. So, don't put off a prompting; you could be a miracle in someone else's life.
