"Jesus answered and said to them, 'Go and report to John what you hear and see: the blind receive sight and the lame walk, the lepers are cleansed and the deaf hear, the dead are raised up, and the poor have the Gospel preached to them. And blessed is he who does not take offense at Me.'" -Matthew 11:4-6 (NASB)
In our lives we see and hear numerous things. We are bombarded with information from any number of sources. We see things. We hear things. We even taste and feel things. We experience life. In the midst of all of this God is working in our lives and doing wondrous things. Do we stop and notice all the things - big and small - that He does for each of us? When we see God's works, what do we do next?
There were many witnesses to the miracles that Jesus performed. Jesus asked these witnesses to report His works to John the Baptist. Though we may not physically see Jesus in our daily lives, we are witnesses to His love and works in our lives. Be sure to take time out of your day to notice all of the miracles in your life.
Once we take the time to recognize God's work in our lives, we shouldn't keep His love, grace, healing, strength, and power to ourselves. We should share it with everyone around us. Through sharing the works in our lives, we can continue to build God's kingdom. We don't have John to report to, but we should share with each other!
As you are living through the experiences of your life, take time to take notice of all God and Jesus have done in your life. Report these works to those around you in praise of God's glory and might!
Prayer:
Dear God-
Thank You for all of the works You do in my life. Please help me to notice Your works and report them to those I encounter in my life. I praise You for Your love, power, and strength shown in my life. In Jesus' name I pray, amen.
