Today’s Scripture

The wind was against the disciples and he could see that they were straining at the oars, trying to make headway. When it was almost morning, Jesus came to them, walking on the surface of the water, and he started to pass by them. When they all saw him walking on the waves, they thought he was a ghost and screamed out in terror. But he said to them at once, “Don’t yield to fear. Have courage. It’s really me—I Am!” Then he came closer and climbed into the boat with them, and immediately the stormy wind became still. They were completely and utterly overwhelmed with astonishment because they failed to learn the lesson of the miracle of the loaves, and their hearts were unwilling to learn the lesson.  

Mark 6:48-52

Today’s Thought

When you don’t learn the life lesson of the first miracle God does in your life, it makes the next one a little harder. Be open-hearted to the wonderful things God has done in your life and remember the miracles so the next ones are easy.

Today’s Confession

Father, help me to see and understand the miracles you have done in my life. Help my heart to be open to all of the wonderful things you have done and will continue to do for me. Thank you for continuing to do miracles every day of my life.
