RIDICULOUSLY MIRACULOUS
If you can’t do the ridiculous, you may never experience the miraculous!
Nobody likes to look silly or enjoys to appear absurd, but I doubt if you’ll ever find a truly great person who hadn’t been.
Joseph and Mary were the envy of other parents of their time.
During one of Jesus’ meetings, a woman became overwhelming fascinated that she said, “…Blessed is the womb that bare thee, and the paps which thou hast sucked.” Luke 11:17.
But she needed to know that before the miracle, Mary had had to face immense ridicule.
Accepting the call to be the mother of our Lord was absolutely preposterous, a complete public disgrace: “Because Joseph her husband was faithful to the law, and yet did not want to expose her to public disgrace, he had in mind to divorce her…” Mathew 1:19. (NIV).
As long as you keep running from what the Lord is asking or calling you to do, for being ridiculous, you can as well say a goodbye to the miraculous!
