The Miracle



The miracle of today was that it was extraordinarily ordinary.

Every day could be like this.

Simply wonderful.


We had an incredibly relaxing and enjoyable trip to the swimming pool -- three kids and I.  The sun was hot on my skin.  The breeze lifted wisps of Finley's golden hair.  The smiles were wide.  The shouts were joyful.

We strolled home, content.

While the cheeseburgers sizzled, we bit through juicy bits of watermelon.

We laughed.


A perfectly perfect summer afternoon.

All tucked inside a normal day of work and chores and paying bills and exercise and laundry and dishes and youth group.

How did that happen?


It can only be a miracle.
