Pure & Simple Faith

This last Sunday in church we studied Ether chapter 12. Oh my goodness is it faith filled awesomeness! I could spend so much time in each verse of scripture. But for the sake of time (and me not boring you) let's just share one today:
Have you ever wanted a miracle? Something to change or be fixed in your life? Maybe it's something in the moment or more long term. Maybe it's a miracle for yourself or for someone you love. Whatever it may be, we have good news! God is a God of miracles! (2 Nephi 27:23) But as you study the scriptures you'll notice that God performs his miracles when the children of God show faith.  

Faith is the answer to receiving miracles. There is a beautiful story that I want to share about a young woman who needed a miracle:


Wasn't that such a touching story? She needed a miracle to provide for her family. She didn't get discouraged but instead turned to God. She prayed that he would help her and she followed his guidance. And she showed her faith by going to action (because we know that faith without works is dead, JST James 2:18). God worked a miracle in her life after she showed her faith! Such a beautiful example and testament of the truth of the scriptures and the reality of God. 

God is there. He knows when you are searching for miracles. Turn to him in prayer and show your faith in action. Trust him. Through your faith, he will bless you!
