I Believe in Miracles....

Yes, miracles..I have always believed and have seen miracles throughout my life. But today I was in tears as I drove myself to walmart...yes, you heard me right...I DROVE TO WALMART! Okay, so where's the miracle you ask. The fact that I got up this morning, went to church, made lunch, went grocery shopping...that to me is a miracle. I'm not being sarcastic by any means. I was actually in tears thanking God the way to walmart. I have been so sick and with my previous pregnancies I knew that it just doesn't go away...not at 9 weeks pregnant!!! When I was pregnant with Mason I still had a few bouts of being sick up until the 3rd trimester so I know without a doubt this was a miracle. I had been praying daily asking God to give me strength and help me thru this and to not be so sick. I was having the hardest time watching my home and family be neglected by me because all I could do was lay on the couch. Not to mention feeling absolutly horrible. Yesterday was my birthday and we went out to eat and to the mall. I felt good. I got hungry but made sure I ate as soon as i felt the urge to keep me from getting sick. And it worked! I felt good..i felt good all evening as well. I was nervous going to church this morning...I just didn't think I would get lucky two days in a row...but PRAISE GOD...I felt good during church. I felt good afterwards...and GOOD enough to go to Walmart. To me..that is a miracle. I truly believe God was at work in this situation. I get teary-eyed just thinking about it. I did get real tired once i got home. I had to lay down and for a few moments..thought I might get sick. I ate though, and that seemed to help. PRAISE GOD AGAIN!! I could never be more greatful. I am starting to feel the hungry feeling again. I'm going to eat some crackers...then hopefully the chilli I'm cooking right now goes down good (and stays down! LOL). I just wanted to write this and remind you to never give up on God and his miraculous power.....it may not sound like a miracle to just anybody..but to me...it was truly a miracle. Miracles can be big or small.
