Have you Performed a Miracle?

I think sometimes we get caught up in a form of worship that consists of reciting psalms and singing praises but do not pay enough attention to the true gift given us by our Heavenly Father and his son our Lord, Jesus Christ. Jesus performed miracles to get our attention but he knew from the beginning that his destiny was to hang on that cross and he knew he would have to defeat death to make a true point to man. He did!


Poem Artwork

My friend, have you performed a Miracle today?

I am guessing I know what you are about to say.

 

It is one thing for a man to teach what he claims is true

But it is another thing to demonstrate it to me and you.

 

That is why the miracles of Jesus are a vital part

The miracle was winning over the sinful heart.

 

For he not only spoke of Gods’ great might.

He came to show us the majesty of his great light.

 

His miracles were a message to those far and near

That the son of God was truly here.

 

Yet, man rejected his wonderful works and cast them aside.

Gods’ goodness was too brilliant and we all tried to hide.

 

They hung our Lord upon the cross and mocked him and jeered.

His purity had caused man to run from his love for they found that they feared.

 

They feared the responsibility of admitting their sins and weakness.

They could not bear to bough down before him in meekness.

 

The final Miracle the Son of God did impart

Was a gift given to us all given by Jesus from his heart.

 

He hung on the cross and prayed for our forgiveness.

He arose from the dead so that his disciples would bare witness

 

That god so loved the world that he gave us his son.

This is why Jesus proclaimed to the Father, “thy will be done.”

With tears of greatfulness I read this tribute to our Savior; what a privilege and honor to KNOW HIM and not just know of HIM! And my heart still goes out to those who still reject Him. Thank you for this reminder to the coming occasion to let the little children see such love over and over again. It's not the Easter Eggs, but God's gift we truly need to revere!
Thank You My Brother,
Sharon

It is amazing (yet not surprising to those who know Him) that Christ did pray for us as He died. God bless you.
