Coincidences or Miracles…are you looking to God to see what He will do or past God to explain what happened?

Each day we are given an opportunity to either serve God or to look past Him. Sure we hear a lot of bad in the world, but what about the good: a new job, a marriage being restored or a healing that occurred?  Think for a minute if you give God the glory for the good or do you consider it ironic, a coincidence or a matter of circumstance?
How can you believe since you accept glory from one another
but do not seek the glory that comes from the only God?

As a Christian when your focus is on God your perspective dramatically changes.  Things that might have at one time seemed coincidental now take a miracle platform. You see, God works in each and everything we do, every person we interact with, and is there in each situation we encounter.  If you are a follower of God, a child of the Father, you are given favor, blessings and protection.  Just like a father watches his child, God watches over you.

Psalm 5:12
Surely, LORD, you bless the righteous;
you surround them with your favor as with a shield.


Good things are bound to happen to you, it is God’s doing, He is there. The next time something good comes your way give Him the Glory, for His goodness is what granted you that gift.


You are fearfully and wonderfully made
(Psalm 139:14)
