“Change does not come from the top down, but from the bottom up.”
“A true marriage of conscience and economy will not depress the economy; it will rebuild it from within, revitalizing it.”

When praying for miracles, us human beings are usually looking for the BIG one – something of such magnificence that we KNOW beyond a shadow of a doubt that it must be the work of God because it’s splendor blows us away. Recently, I was the recipient of an event that, as it progressed, because so miraculous that I am still shaking my head. To most people, this would be merely coincidence, but in my heart, I know it is much more.
I was reading Philip Yancey’s Where is God When it Hurts one evening, trying to bolster my spirits. Two names stood out to me: Joni Eareckson Tada and Corrie ten Boom. The next morning, following morning Bible Study, I asked to look in a box of books that were for sale – “Non-fiction, please, any box will do.” As I opened the box, the first two books were Kathleen White’s Joni Eareckson Tada and Corrie ten Boom! I was quite taken aback by this and knew I had been led for a reason. The following day, while having my hair styled, I was reading Joni and much to my surprise, my stylist engaged me in a conversation as she had also read and enjoyed it and found great inspiration from it. The following day, I savored the icing on the proverbial cake. As I was reading Corrie ten Boom’s story, it dawned on me that my husband had been telling me the story in bits and pieces for months. |
In my bleak moments, he would tell me that everything was God; God was found everywhere. I read about Corrie and her sisters, grateful for the lice and the fleas infiltrating their barracks in the concentration camp. Rather than be dismayed, they were grateful as the vermin meant the guards would not come in and they could study the Bible in peace. What a miracle to have these books enter my life. God knows the reason!
