Don't Go Looking for Miracles, See the Ones Right in Front of You

When someone attempts to guess what "might" happen because of an eclipse that is our first clue it is not coming from God. When God speaks the prophet will say something like: 'Thus saith the Lord", there is no guessing or figuring things out.
Every time a Christian guesses based on their desires they ultimately end up discrediting Christ.
The unbelievers need to see us walking by faith, full of trust in Christ no matter what is happening to us. This is far more evidence of the existence of God than any natural occurrence. After all, we have already seen God's handiwork in nature every single day.
The trees grow from the rain that falls and the nutrients in the soil. They grow from a tiny little seed one can hold between their fingers into a three-hundred-foot tall redwood tree.
A person can place a tiny tomato seed in soil and a plant will grow that produces large fruit that we can put in our salads. If these things are not enough of a miracle then we have become dull and ungrateful.
Every year the trees know when to know which time of year to grow flowers on the trees that produce the fruit. And each tree produces fruit according to its own kind. An apple tree always grows apples and a plumb tree always grows plumbs.
These plants and this fruit is a miracle every day. And every day there are miracles all around us that we take for granted. When we realize there are miracles all around us every day we can have a sense that God is taking care of us providing all that we need.
Those who are looking for big grandiose miracles are missing the miracles in nature that God created. When we ponder His greatness and the immensity of this earth and everything in it we can have joy and peace, worshiping as we thank Him for this amazing creation.
Matthew 16:4 "4A wicked and adulterous generation demands a sign, but none will be given it except the sign of Jonah.” Then He left them and went away."
Matthew 12:39
"Jesus replied, "A wicked and adulterous generation demands a sign, but none will be given it except the sign of the prophet Jonah."
Luke 11:29
"As the crowds were increasing, Jesus said, "This is a wicked generation. It demands a sign, but none will be given it except the sign of Jonah."
Hallalujah!
