What to do when waiting on your miracle

Picture this:

You're on your way home from work when you get a phone call to pick up some items from the grocery store. No problem! You pick up the 5/6 items requested and proceed to the Express lane

EXPRESS LANE - 10 ITEMS OR LESS - CASH ONLY

You're #2 in line...Tell me what you're doing. Like most, you're counting the # of items the person before you has and it looks like they've exceeded the total. So you recount just to be sure

TWELVE ITEMS!!!

so you do the christian thing. You huff and you puff and mutter under your breath. To make matters worse, this person whips out a check book. This time you're livid and may want to take action

OKAY SO MAYBE THAT'S NOT YOU

what about when you're driving above the limit in the fast lane. You're late for an appointment and there's someone infront driving just below the speed limit but refuses to change lanes. What do you say at that point? God Bless you? Probably not

The point is waiting is difficult. We live in a society where we want instant gratification. Patience is not high on our list...


MARK 5:21-43

Below are 6 principles to follow when waiting on your miracle

1. Be not afraid (v36)
2. Only believe (v36)
3. Surround yourself with positive people (v37)
4. Kick out the negative people from your life (v38-40)
5. Speak life into your situation (v41)
6. Feed your miracle(v43)
