Fantastic Friday #562 - Remarkable

Remarkable

21 The Pharisees and the teachers of the law began thinking to themselves, “Who is this fellow who speaks blasphemy? Who can forgive sins but God alone?”

22 Jesus knew what they were thinking and asked, “Why are you thinking these things in your hearts? 23 Which is easier: to say, ‘Your sins are forgiven,’ or to say, ‘Get up and walk’? 24 But I want you to know that the Son of Man has authority on earth to forgive sins.” So he said to the paralyzed man, “I tell you, get up, take your mat and go home.” 25 Immediately he stood up in front of them, took what he had been lying on and went home praising God. 26 Everyone was amazed and gave praise to God. They were filled with awe and said, “We have seen remarkable things today.” Luke 5:21-26

Have you seen anything remarkable this week? I bet if you take a moment to look back, you probably did see something that was miraculous, even if it was something small. Tonight I saw my son get hit by a line drive to the chest while he was pitching. It has to be one of the hardest hits I have ever seen and made me think how blessed we are that the ball wasn't hit a few inches to the right. God has a hand in everything, but many times we are too caught up in ourselves to realize how good God is and what He does for us. Every so often God does something remarkable in our lives to remind us of his power, whether it be healing or protection, God is always there. Take a moment and look at the remarkable things in your life that have happened today.

Have a great weekend.
