# Looking for a Miracle

**Does God read our Facebook page?** I think so ... of course, He knows everything right? This week I had an experience that showed me how God is paying attention even to “social media.”
One of the Native men who is a believer, Mike, hasn’t been doing well lately and, among other things, it caused a break-up between him and his girlfriend, Nikki. So, one evening, I went to Nikki’s house to drop something off and found her at the door in tears.

Nikki is not yet a believer and I was glad to take a few minutes just to let her pour out her heart. Then I shared one of God’s promises in Isaiah 40, that, “those who wait on the Lord will soar on like eagles” (v. 31). I suggested she read the whole chapter that night (she recently began reading God’s Word using a “Women’s Bible” that Mike gave her). Well, when I got home that evening, Nikki sent me the following text message:

> *Hey, Mark. I just had to say thanks. I was feeling weak and posted on Facebook just before you came to the door,”Looking for a Miracle,” and you told me what to read and I feel a lot better (for being home alone). Thanks again for everything. God bless!*

Let’s keep presenting ourselves to God daily as His servants through Christ Jesus so He can use us to bring the little “miracles” people need each day!

*Rev. Mark Peske, Bemidji, MN*

***"But those who hope in the Lord will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not be faint."*** (Isaiah 40:31)
