Mother Theresa wisely said, “Some people come in your life as blessings. Some come in your life as lessons.”
“Life is not easy.” “It gets harder as you get older.” These are some phrases we sometimes hear throughout life. And maybe there is some truth to these sayings, but during tough times, the Lord can teach us and our children some valuable life lessons. Life lessons can be learned anywhere and however in life – through experiences, from family members, and most notably, from the Bible. The word of God is not just a story – it is true history. They are not just biblical characters – they are real people.
“Stretch out your hand to heal and perform signs and wonders through the name of your holy servant Jesus.” – Acts 4:30.
Some of the best life lessons can be learned from family members. Take the time to sit with and listen to an elder in your family or church. You may be surprised by what they have to say and share. We can learn a lot from their mistakes, wisdom, experiences, and corrections!
“Wisdom belongs to the aged and understanding to the old.” – Job 12:12.
Lee Ann elaborates on one miracle, which was the birth of her daughter. Her daughter was born 10 minutes before midnight on the exact same day that Lee Ann’s mother went to be with Jesus six years earlier. March 3rd was always a sad day for her until the sad memories were replaced by the birth of Lena, named after her mother. God can create life lessons and miracle moments in the most impactful, unique way!
