ARE WE IMPRESSED?

Today's reading: Psalm 105-107

"Our ancestors in Egypt were not impressed by the Lord's miracles. They soon forgot his many acts of kindness to them. Instead, they rebelled against him at the Red Sea." Psalm 106:7 NLT

Think of the miracles the Israelites saw God perform on their behalf during their 40 year wildnerness wandering:

-watching the Death Angel pass over their homes

-leaving with gifts from the Egyptians

-parting of the Red Sea

-manna and quail for 40 years

-water from rocks

-pillars of fire and of clouds to lead them

-shoes that never wore out

-bodies that didn't give up

-a leader that leave them high and dry after all their antics, grumbles and complaints

-a land that was as much, if not more, that He promised it would be

After all they had seen, tasted, felt and heard, they were not impressed enough by the Lord to continue seeking after them with all their hearts.

What about us?

With all we see Him do around us, for us, through us, with us, in spite of us--are we impressed by His miracles to the extent that we are sold out to His service?

Not just 'big miracles' like healings, averted car crashes or job offers. 

No, what about the every day little miracles like provision, sunrises and sunsets, hearts that beat and lungs that breath without our assistance, located keys, His love for us no matter our attention to Him?

Are you impressed by the Lord's miracles on a day to day basis? Are you remembering His kindness to you every day?
