Can you be part of a miracle?

by Vickie Neff

In this book Mr. Wilkinson compels you to ask yourself several questions. What is a miracle? Do you believe in miracles? Have you seen or experienced a miracle? Can you be a part of a miracle for someone else?

His basic premise is that as followers of Jesus our life’s work is to “go and make disciples of all nations.” A pretty tall order – impossible even, in our own power, but with the power of His Holy Spirit within us we can and should be doing so much more than we may realize.

Wilkinson’s book continues by spelling out step by step how we can make ourselves ready and willing to allow God to use us to accomplish miracles in other people’s lives. And while some of his “keys” and “signals” and other terms may seem somewhat forced at times, I found many ideas I can put into play in my own life.

I do believe this was a good wakeup call for me to hear. Am I living up to what God created me to be? Am I aware of the needs of those around me? Am I willing to be used by my loving Heavenly Father to make a difference in the lives of those around me? I found the book a great reminder to really notice the people I come in contact with and to pay attention to how my willingness to be used by God in even small ways can affect their lives. A miracle doesn’t need to be big and flashy – but a small deed or action orchestrated by God can be life changing to all involved.

Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord, not for men ~ Colossians 3:23
