His Phenomenal Wonders

     Do you ever sit down and just think about how amazing and powerful God is? Is it part of your thoughts before you go to sleep?  I do. God has done so many things that just make me wonderstruck. Two of those are His miracles and the amount of followers He has. Why?

     Can an average person, like me, perform miracles? No, but God can! He is extraordinary and amazing. My favorite miracles would have to be Jesus Feeds Five Thousand (Mark 6: 30-44) and Jesus Heals A Boy With A Demon (Matthew 17: 14-20). Why? It's amazing how He fed five thousand people with just five loaves of bread and two fish. Doesn't it make you wonder? It also stuns me how Jesus can drive a demon out of a boy. Average people, like me, cannot do that! God is so powerful that He can do anything. Doesn't it take your breath away? 

     As most (or maybe even all) of you know, Jesus was born in a manger. He was born in such simple surroundings and acted like a normal person. There was one special thing about Him though. He is the child of God and He has followers. By followers, I mean Christians, Catholics, etc. There are also people who give their lives to Christ and they are called saints. My favorite saint would have to be Blessed Brother Andre because he was known for his sense of humor. Research shows that laughter strengthens the immune system. It refreshes us from our troubles which allows us to connect with God more. 

     Speaking of connecting with God, I have been building up my relationship with God ever since I've been going to an event called Elevate. Elevate gives you a chance to get closer with God. For the past few days, a lot of things has been going through my mind. One of those things is that it's portfolio week and I bet every homeschooler agrees that portfolio week can be stressful. With that happening right now, I decide to lift my day up to the Lord and let Him be in charge of it. Since I know that God has done many great and astounding things, I know He can help me with all my troubles and He can help you, too! You don't need to see to believe, but you can definitely believe to see.
