You Don't Have Time For...Sample
We don't have time for…the past
For those of you who read these daily miracles to your family, please know that today's "miracle" has some sensitive content.
"That was the worst moment of my life—at that moment, you are dead. You don't even want to live anymore."
Whew! When I heard those words come out of my own mouth in a recent interview on Christian German TV and saw myself on that recording, even I held my breath for a moment.
The interview was about the rape that I experienced, and yes, God really did completely heal this wound in my life! I'm amazed when I think about it, especially in times like these when I have to "dive in" once again and revisit the memory.
But giving interviews like this, speaking at women's conferences, or sharing my story in A Miracle Every Day are the only times I still give space to my past. You'll never hear me say, "I would've liked to have done this or that in life, but it's not possible anymore. I've been through too many awful things...you don't understand!"
That's not the language heaven speaks!! Heaven is calling out to you today: "...'Awake, you who sleep, arise from the dead, and Christ will give you light.'" (Ephesians 5:14, NKJV)!
-"Awake, you who sleep" means…you are not what happened to you! You have incredible worth!
-"Arise from the dead" means…Get up! Live! "'...For I am the LORD who heals you.'" (Exodus 15:26, NKJV)
-"Christ will give you light" means…don't let the shadows of the past define you any longer when Jesus wants to be the light of your future!
You don't live just to survive! You live to rise, to experience a miracle, and to pass it on!
You are a miracle!

About this Plan
As we begin a new year, many of us look both to the past and to the future as we pray, write resolutions, and set goals. So many things can take our time and energy from what matters most, and sometimes we don't even realize it! As you prayerfully consider the upcoming year, I pray this series serves as a great catalyst and encouragement in your life.
