Every day we get is a fresh start. A new journey. Maybe it ends up being an “ordinary” day filled with cooking meals, cleaning up, going to work, taking the kids to swimming lessons, reminding the kids to brush their teeth, etc. But what about when you know your day is going to be different?
Early this Thursday, me and the family are off to San Francisco for a hemophilia conference. We are really excited, not just about the conference, but we have never been to San Francisco! My husband is excited about the fresh seafood đŸ™‚
The following Friday I am off for a few days to a symposium in Chicago (and I am involved in two presentations). Another exciting journey.
I am so excited to have a couple of new adventures coming my way. Sometimes it can be scary and even stressful when you don’t know what to expect, but when you take each opportunity, make the most of it, and enjoy and live in the moment, you just cannot ask for more.
In Mark 5, the story is told of Jesus raising a sick girl from the dead. Many were doubting what Jesus was able to do, and Jesus simply said, “Don’t be afraid, just believe.” They doubted that a miracle could happen. They just could not put their heads around the fact that the impossible could be made possible. We doubt everyday that the amazing may never happen.
Why couldn’t a miracle happen?
You never know when or where that miracle may happen.
Maybe it will be in the car on the way to a ball game, or while on a trip away from home, but we need to just “believe” that Christ is with us in all we do.
The mundane to the amazing.
