Thought for the Day by Max Lucado

GP: Everyday you and I are miracles waiting to happen when the Lord is in our life.

People will see the power of God in our lives and we will be amazed with the words, ideas and actions He gives us

As we go out into our backyard world may we be salt and light to a world in need. God tells us who we are to be in Him.

" You are the salt of the earth. You are the light of the world.

Let your light so shine before all that they may see your good works and give honor to God in heaven."

Matthew 5:13-16

May we also remember to see each person as an opportunity for God's mercy, healing, touch, hug, kindness, listening ear.

Don’t judge other people or you will be judged. Matthew 7:1

Rather than see the man born blind as an opportunity for discussion, Jesus saw him as an opportunity for God. Why was he blind? “

So God’s power could be shown in him” (John 9:3).

What a perspective! The man wasn’t a victim of fate; he was a miracle waiting to happen.

Jesus didn’t label him.

He helped him. Jesus was more concerned about the future than the past.
