I came across this quote the other day and I have been meditating on it today.

“The heart of the Gospel is change. It is transformation. It is being born again to a new life..The heart of Christ’s message is extremely simple: an encounter with God – a real one- means change.” (p.42, The Cross & The Switchblade)

This quote kinda sums up where I am at right now. Everything is changing. And I am not always okay with it. Especially now. I normally love the changes in the weather, you know, seasons, trends, clothes, friends. But right now I’ve been at a lost. I don’t want summer to fade. I don’t want my friends to move all over the world. I want everything to stay the same. But it can’t. If it were, then I would be losing what I claim I live for.

So today I did something that I haven’t done in a while.

I’ve been serving God to some serious extent for about 3 or 4 years.

And for the first time today, I asked God and believed Him for a miracle for myself.

For some time now I’ve operated under a particular attitude and belief structure. I don’t feel that this particular belief structure and attitude are inaccurate per se. I know that God can do miracles. That He can bring healing to the body, the heart, the mind. I know that any and everything is possible for God. I also know that not everyone is healed. I realize that there is sovereign and divine plan behind a good deal of what goes on in this life. It annoys me to hear it preached that faith is the only contingent ingredient in healing and miracles. I know of people who doubted that God has done miracles for. I know of people who were faithful down to their core who didn’t see the miracle they wanted.
