Job 5.9 (NIV)
"He performs wonders that cannot be fathomed, miracles that cannot be counted."
 
There are more remarkable things going on than those I usually see.*
I read a story about people who worked at the Twin Towers but who were running late for work on September 11, 2001. I can’t verify the authenticity of those specific instances but I am sure that there are true tales of people who didn’t die that day due to unexpected circumstances – some of which were the type that normally causes frustration: flat tire; sick kid; traffic jam. Were they cases of divine intervention?

We witness many things that we can’t explain. Maybe they are miracles. God can and does perform the supernatural. But I believe that most of today’s true miracles are “behind the scenes.” We don’t know that they are happening. We don’t realize what God has arranged for our benefit. We may be aware that divine intervention was involved but we only see the results of it. God has promised to work all things out for our good and he does this in ways that cannot be fathomed.
No leaf falls without God’s knowledge. No wave crashes without his calculation. He has never been surprised.*
