Blooming With God’s Grace
And why do you worry about clothes? See how the flowers of the field grow. They do not labor or spin. Yet I tell you that not even Solomon in all his splendor was dressed like one of these.—Matthew 6:28–29 (NIV)
Jesus’ first miracle served an ordinary purpose and possibly one many can relate to even today—the wine had run out at a party.

Heavenly Father, guide me to see the many small miracles You grace my life with; help me to always recognize Your acts of love.

Be sure you know the condition of your flocks, give careful attention to your herds; for riches do not endure forever, and a crown is not secure for all generations.—Proverbs 27:23–24 (NIV)
But to you who are listening I say: Love your enemies, do good to those who hate you, bless those who curse you, pray for those who mistreat you.—Luke 6:27–28 (NIV)
