“Do whatever he tells you,” his mother told the servants. (John 2:5)
Some of you may be seeking a miracle in your life this year. It may be physical healing. It may be the healing of a relationship. It may be a new job. It may be the resolving of a seemingly never-ending problem.
But as we come to God seeking that miracle, let us take the attitude of Mary.
Let us not just pray repeatedly, “God, please solve my problem.”
Instead, as we think about our problems, let us come to Jesus, saying, “What do you want me to do? Whatever you tell me, I’ll do it.”
That’s the heart God seeks.
Not a heart that that simply sees him as a genie.
Not a heart that seeks to bribe or manipulate him.
But a heart that is fully submitted to him.
And as we submit to him, we’ll find that the greatest miracle is not the change God brings about in our circumstances, but the change God brings about in our own hearts.
