Behind the Scenes Miracles
by Joni Eareckson Tada
“Because you have seen me, you have believed; blessed are those who have not seen and yet have believed.”
John 20:29
Many Christians don’t see God in their trials. If no miracles are happening — if the floods aren’t receding or the cancer is not in remission — God must not be at work. We think of miracles as the kind we witnessed in the movie, The Ten Commandments. “Those ten plagues on Egypt, now that was God up to something.” Agreed, frogs and lice in Pharaoh’s bed made for a great film years ago. Ah, but if we could only watch the real movie of how God runs the world from behind the scenes…
Oh, the infinite complexity of it all! The wrenching of good out of evil like blood from a turnip; the clandestine exploiting of Satan’s worst escapades; the balancing act of weather systems across the globe which assure the arrival of summer; the infiltration of grace and salvation behind even the barb wire of Russian death camps; the exact number of white blood cells called into action to defeat your illness — that will win an Oscar. The delicately balanced, invisible workings of our great God–this is real drama. Meanwhile, He wants us to trust Him. As Jesus told skeptical Thomas after the resurrection, “Blessed are those who have not seen and yet believed.”
So why do we still doubt? Perhaps we cannot find wrapping paper wide enough to package these truths neatly. No one can grasp the Almighty and His miracles. “Even angels long to look into these things” (1 Peter 1:12). However, our inability to comprehend something doesn’t make it untrue or any less miraculous. As Paul put it, “How unsearchable his judgments, and his paths beyond tracing out!” (Romans 11:33). Count His miracles today…and thank Him.
Lord, thank You for every miracle today, whether it is to heal or spread encouragement, or to defeat the works of darkness. I believe!
Blessings,
Joni and Friends
