Miracles Still Happen

Jesus performs miracles, even though He's not here in the flesh anymore.

Miracles Still Happen

Personally, I feel like many Christians today don't believe in miracles. I've also been told by nonbelievers that if God were real, then the same miraculous healings and unbelievable, inexplicable phenomenons would still be happening.

I'm here to testify that they actually are still happening. I think a lot of people assume Jesus is a dude who comes for a visit to his "favorites" and leaves... like He can only be in one spot at a time -- that His soul is as small as we are. However, the truth is, that we actually live within Jesus. It's like pouring salt onto your popcorn. You typically don't pour salt onto your popcorn one piece at a time. If you're like most people, you would pour your salt onto your popcorn all at once, to where it touches every kernel in the bag at once. Well, that's how Jesus is with us. He's the salt that's spread across the entire globe all at once. He has contact with every human, every plant, and every animal on this earth.

So, getting into the miracles, I have to tell you that people's testimonies have miracles written all over them.

Lacey Sturm, former lead singer of Flyleaf, shared her amazing miracle with the public in this video.


Jesus does still perform miracles regardless of the fact that He's not here in the flesh. He called on His prophets and His followers to perform these acts in His name. He uses His people as instruments to heal and bring others to Him, like He used the church and the grandmother to help Lacey reach Him.

He performs miracles like these all the time. I've seen Him change so many lives, like Brian Welch, a member of the band Korn.


But he was just doing that to look like a good person, right? Well, truly, it doesn't make sense for him to completely stop doing highly addictive and dangerous drugs to make a God, that he doesn't even believe in, look good. It doesn't at all. It's extremely easy to see the authenticity in his testimony. That's a miracle.

It's not only these two people, either. There are so many people who have experienced very similar miracles and savings. God's miracles are everywhere on this earth. As mentioned before, He covers us like salt. He sees us all and we all matter at the same time.

The key to experiencing these miracles, is simply to call out to Jesus from your heart. The only thing you need to do is genuinely ask for Him to come into your life. He always listens and He can heal absolutely anything. He can take away any sort of pain, as He did for Lacey Sturm and Brian Welch.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
