I Am A Walking Miracle

Tuesday August 13, 2019

“I am a walking miracle” is a slogan we often hear said in recovery meetings.  It’s repeated because we are amazed at the change God has made in our lives.  Each of us knows that it is nothing short of a miracle to be who we are today, compared to who we once were. 

Many of us can testify that when we came into recovery, we were powerless over our problems and dependencies.  Daily living was totally unmanageable.  The thing that brought us to recovery was that we began to believe we could find a power greater than ourselves who could restore us to sanity. 

God has sent his special servant Jesus.  He sent him to you first.  He sent him to bless you by causing each of you to turn away from your evil ways. (Acts 3:26 ERV)

When we were stumbling around in the darkness, we were unaware of the provision God had made for us.  We did not know, or chose not to believe, that God desired to have a relationship with us.  When we wholeheartedly gave our will and life over to God’s care, we came to experience that we had someone to watch over us, someone who really knew us and cared for us.  We also became aware that we were sealed with God’s Holy Spirit as a guarantee of our inheritance as a child of God.

Now He who establishes us with you in Christ and has anointed us is God, who also has sealed us and given us the Spirit in our hearts as a guarantee.  (2 Corinthians 1:21-22 NKJV)
What a privilege to be in the care of Almighty God.  When a child of God considers where they have come from, and who they are right now, no wonder they proclaim, “I am a walking miracle”. 

To Him who loved us and washed us from our sins in His own blood and has made us kings and priests to His God and Father, to Him be glory and dominion forever and ever. Amen.  (Revelation 1:5b-6 NKJV)




Prayer: Gracious Father, I don’t know why You love me, but You do.  Thank You for raising me to new heights with You.  Amen
