Prepare for the Miracle

What comes next?

I believe it's time to "excel still more."

That's what you are telling us, Lord, isn't it?

Like the lady said last Sunday,
Jesus used ordinary things and ordinary people to do His first miracle.
Sometimes what He wants us to do doesn't make sense.
If we give Him what we have,
He'll make something beautiful of it.
They were obedient and willing to do hard work.
They gave Him the best they had.
Sometimes God has to get us to the place of desperation
so we will cry out to Him.
It takes us getting weak enough so that God can rescue us.
When we say "I quit. I give it to You." then He can do what we need Him to do.
God knows best.
Some preparation had to be made for the miracle.
Why did Jesus do the miracle?
Because He cared.  He cares about everything in our lives.

Help us, Lord, to prepare for the miracle.
