Today was a day unparalled by many in recent memory.
It was a day of miracles of all sorts, from the small and amazing to the large and fully visible.
Twice today, I was running late leaving my house to make it to class, one of which I had a test in. Both times I either made it to class early or exactly on time. I consider that to be a small miracle, at least in my life right now. God doesn't have the perception of time we have, and so getting me there when He wanted me there meant on time for me. I love it.
After my day of miracles, I went to work.
Today was not the average day of work. I mean, on average, I have some sort of spiritual talk, but today was such an exception to the norm.
I talked for literally hours with one of my co-workers about God's plan for us, our future spouses, and what we wanted God to change in us.
This co-worker is rapidly teaching many things about people that I hadn't really experienced before now. I had never really met believers that are willing to put themselves out for their neighbors, before I took this job, and now I'm seeing people that really want to strive after God, and are willing to love unconditionally.
Our talk showed me alot. She actually mentioned something that really hit home with me.
I have had something on my heart for awhile, that I feel like God has told me is in His plan for me, but there are also times when I wonder if maybe it's just the voice in my head telling me what I want to hear (I also have a very complicated view on the conscience/voice in the head and God, but maybe a later date.) My friend pointed out that if I am truly striving to live for God, I won't be able to help but be on His path, and have Him show me what I need to see in this life, and what He has in store for me. This is a very true statement, and I had never really recognized it before tonight, even though I have told others that before. It was a pretty amazing revalation.
I have also noticed that twice tonight, God put it on my heart to ask people what I could pray for them about. It's something that's been in my head for a long time now, but God put it in my heart today, and gave me courage to ask. And the positive reaction you get, and the willingness to accept it are incredible.
Also, over these past couple of weeks, God has been bringing many other believers into my life, through various sources, and today I sat back and gave thought to how many believers have shown up, and how strong the spiritual enviroment that is my life is becoming, and it just strengthens my love and faith for He whom without there would be nothing.
I have to say that God is beyond recognition in His love and beauty. That love He pours out onto us is taken for granted everyday, but I think if we all just took a look for even one day, as to how much He does for us in a day, we'd all be singing His praises for the rest of our lives.
Like I said, quite an astounding day in the Father.
In our "infinite knowledge" as humans, how can we not realize that even in two eternities, we couldn't begin to come into range of the TRUE infinite knowledge and love that is God?
