As my daily devotion time, I'm going to write, instead of read someone else's, daily miracles. My hope is, that by doing this, I will enrich my journey and awareness of God in the little things in my life and also encourage others to do the same. I encourage you to share your comments and stories of things that you encounter along your journey.
Blessings,
Jennifer

Baby

Tonight one of my youth sent me a picture text.  It was his baby cousin and he wanted me to see how adorable he is.  Earlier in the evening, he told me that he, his mom, and his grandma were now caring for him.  I remember 5 months ago when he was born and how excited this teen was.  It's all he could talk about.  Then, suddenly he told us he didn't see him anymore because his aunt was in trouble and instead of taking responsibility, she was on the run.  Yesterday, she decided to turn herself in.  And, although she had upset everyone in the family, they supported her and are taking care of her baby.  The love and forgiveness of her and taking care of what she loves most reminds me of what God does for us when we decide to turn ourselves over to Him. 
So where did I see God today?  I saw Him in the love this teen showed his aunt and cousin.
Matthew 25:40
New International Version (NIV)
40 “The King will reply, ‘Truly I tell you, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers and sisters of mine, you did for me.’
Blessings,
