Good morning, world. Things are looking pretty good from the front porch of my farm in Virginia today. I see the Majesty of God in a simple sunrise and it’s as if the light illuminates my Time in His Presence and causes me hunger for more. That doesn’t make a whole lot of sense to some people…especially those sleeping through the sunrises in Life…but that’s the way it works for me. I praise. I pray. I hunger for more of Him every day. As I thought about my hunger for more this morning, I thought about the cold temperatures, the ground still covered with snow, and my Heart went out to all the ones suffering because of it- my four-legged friends around the farm that can’t access the earth for nourishment, and all the two-legged friends in need of food and shelter. Most animals will relentlessly search for the help they know they need, but when it comes to the two-legged kind, sadly, many will helplessly freeze to death because they don’t know how or where to search for what they need…and that’s where God’s people (are supposed to) come in – to do for the least of them in His Name. My Heart for those in need Reminded me of a woman so long ago who knew EXACTLY what she needed – she Believed that if she could just touch the hem of the garment of Jesus Christ, she would be made whole. I Know that if I want to be all that He Created me to be, it takes a Heart like that…a Heart with unshakable Faith. a Heart desperate for more, and a Heart that breaks over the suffering of another. So, I reached for His “hem” like never before this morning, and He filled me with everything I need for the Journey of Life today. Isn’t that the way you seek Him, too?

It can be easy to overlook the Power available to all those who Belong to Jesus Christ because we live in a world riddled with lies and deceit…but we miss out on the Miracles if we do. It’s not much different today than it was so long ago when that woman found her way to His hem in a massive crowd of people surrounding Jesus. I’m sure a part of the crowd was around for the ride, while others were there just to see what Jesus could do. There must have been some who just thought it was cool to see Jesus in Action, as if they needed to be entertained! But this woman was there because she KNEW Jesus was her Hope. It wasn’t a surprise to HER that she was instantly healed the moment she touched His hem. No doubt she prayed countless prayers for healing throughout the twelve years she suffered. No doubt she cried a million tears living as an outcast because she was labeled “unclean” and therefore unworthy to be around others. Even her own family had rejected her. But when this woman heard about Jesus, she didn’t “hope” He could heal her…she KNEW He could heal her if she just got close enough to touch even the hem of a garment. There was no magic in the garment itself – the “magic” was that she Believed…absolutely, positively, without a doubt. Lots of people follow Him, and plenty claim to be His child, but far too few actually Believe that if they could just “touch the hem of his garment,” they would be healed… absolutely, positively, without a shadow of a doubt. Is it any wonder people don’t see Miracles for themselves if they don’t believe they’re possible in the first place?

Some of the people suffering through the cold without food or (proper) shelter won’t come looking for help – Help needs to come looking for them instead. Some of them are so lost that they have no desire for a Changed Life – but an opportunity for a changed life needs to be offered to them anyway. Some of them don’t want to leave the “safety” of their street shelter because, sadly, that’s where they feel safe, but Safety needs to be shared nonetheless. With a Heart that Loves like Jesus Loves, none of those details matter and should NEVER be the reason we don’t offer help. The suffering need Love. The suffering need Compassion. The suffering needs Jesus…the Jesus that can change a Life with just the touch of His garment.

I began this magnificent new day with a Heart for the suffering and a Life hungering for more. I Believe in Him, and I Believe in Miracles…absolutely, positively, without a shadow of a doubt.

I serve a supernatural God, and I expect supernatural things as part of my Journey of Faith.

His Word isn’t a history book to me, and it can never become obsolete.

God is the same yesterday, today, and forevermore, and the same Jesus who healed that woman so long ago stands at the right side of the Throne of God today, ready, willing, and able to perform Miracles in the lives of all who Believe. My Faith is unwavering…I’m unshakable…and because of that, I’m Unstoppable too. I’ll be reaching for the hem of His garment all the days of my Life and nothing can stop me from sharing the God of Miracles with the world.

How about you?
