God is at work every day. As long as we observe with a thankful heart, we can see His wonderful miracles! In the Graduation Ceremony just passed, our coworkers Timothy and his wife Ripple experienced a great miracle!
Timothy was a graduate of our Leadership Institute this year, so he was on the list to be picked for the court exam at the graduation ceremony. On the first ceremony on Saturday, he was picked to do power ministry. On the next service, his name was drawn again – for 10-minute preaching. The bible passage he drew for the preaching was the last paragraph of Mark 16, where Jesus asked His disciples to go into all the world and preach the gospel to all creation, and “signs will accompany those who believe”. It so happened that Ripple was also picked to do power ministry as well as 10-minute preaching last year. Even more miraculously, she drew the same bible passage as Timothy!
I am extremely amazed by this “coincidental” miracle! As for Timothy, he realizes how much God loves him as God said to him through the Bible passage: “Behold! You are in miracle!” He looks back and is reminded that his parents have done a lot for him. His life has been smooth in schooling, further study and work. Unknowingly, he has taken everything for granted and is not thankful for the grace and favor bestowed upon him. God has given him a good wife, but he doubted whether she was right for him. God led him to full-time ministry, but he wondered if only his wife was called, he was just a supporting role. After finishing Leadership Institute, he waited one year to graduate to fulfill the discipleship requirement. Again he questioned if God was really guiding him. He was made aware by this miracle that God is truly guiding them in his marriage. It is by God grace and His election that they can serve God together as a couple. To that, he should believe, embrace and be grateful.
Dear brothers and sisters, everything that God has done to us is out of His love and is the best for us. We need to know that we are actually in His miracle. When we keep seeing miracles and keep giving thanks, we will surely experience greater and more miracles and lead more people into them!
