2 Nephi 27:23 -- On Miracles

"For behold, I am God; and I am a God of miracles; and I will show unto the world that I am the same yesterday, today, and forever; and I work not among the children of men save it be according to their faith."
2 Nephi 27:23


I like this declaration that God is, and always will be, a God of miracles. We look for drama sometimes, and don't see it, and so we think God isn't there... but God works by faith, and the dramatic things come *after* faith, not before it. And even then, most miracles happen in the small and simple things of every day, and might not look like miracles to everyone. I'm sure when Nephi's family left Jerusalem it didn't seem like a miracle to those left behind. And Noah's ark looked like the work of a madman until the floods came.

Today, let's be faithful and look to God in faith for help and protection. His blessings won't always seem miraculous to others, but as we seek God's hand in our lives, we will clearly see it.
