Delores Liesner: Why We Need To Be The Miracle

Everyone's Story is excited to introduce author Delores Liesner. I admire and respect this amazing woman, wife, mom,  grandmother, and author. Through life lessons, some coveted and others from the touched-heart, Delores is able to reach beyond herself and to give to others. No wonder why she's written the soon-to-be released book about why we need to be the miracle for others. Please take the time to share a kind word with Delores. Also, check out the BookGiveaway she's offering of author Davis Bunn's novel, THE TURNING. By the way, Davis Bunn has endorsed Delores's book. Wow!!

BookGiveaway:

Delores is offering 1 copy of author Davis Bunn's novel, THE TURNING. Mr. Bunn is one of the endorsers of Delores's upcoming release, BE THE MIRACLE. The winner will be announced here on Friday, February 27th between 5-6 PM EST. To be entered in the Giveaway, please leave your contact information within your comment. 

Delores has this to say about THE TURNING: Today’s media frenzies, constant shocking news, and end-times turbulence reveals daily unlikely roads for believers, churches, America and the world. Davis Bunn gives us glimpses into minds that pour out such darkness, but also reveals how God still speaks to His followers today.

Cows and Miracles by Delores Liesner

Would you believe a cow turned me into a miracle-believing lady? Though I’d always known about Jesus dying on the cross, and the Bible being God’s words, it took a couple of amazing and unexplainable events for me to understand miracles could happen to me and through me!

Not realizing we were risk-taking hubby and I hopped in the car and headed for Colorado. Youthful and ignorant in the ways of the world, we’d learned the night before that the Navigator’s who produced the Bible studies our friend had given us were having a conference so we packed up and went! When a startled young man answered our phone call, made when we were already halfway across the country, we got to thinking maybe we should have told them we were coming!

The conference was full, but separate rooms across campus were found for us. Consequently we only sat by each other during meetings and meals, so we didn’t compare notes until on the way home. When we both started sharing the identical leading—to give a certain amount to a specific missionary for 6 months—we knew God was at work. The only amount in our budget that matched the leading was for food. Would God ask us to give up food? We said we would, and God surprised us with every meal in a most unexpected way. 

That is from Surprise Us for Dinner, God, the first story in my upcoming 31-day personal-challenge devotional, Be The Miracle! When God did that miracle (delivered a cow when we asked Him to surprise us for dinner!) at the beginning of our Christian life, we knew He was real, and that He dealt with people on a personal level. If God could do this, we figured He could do anything, and our faith grew with every story.

Each of the true incidents tells how God led me to bless someone else (often a stranger), or others bringing us an unexpected answer to prayer. Often when I share my stories, some women are excited to tell stories of miracles in their own lives. Others wonder if God would do miracles through them too. 

I always share that God is not a get-your-prayers-answered-here vending machine. But God does call all of His followers to put our hands and feet (and less often our voice) to our faith to be what I call a delivery-girl for God. Just as we represent our spouses with our children, and our supervisors with the public because we know them so well, and can anticipate their response to a situation, we can know God in such a personal way that we can represent Him to others too.

That takes time. In Be The Miracle! the life changing lesson, verse and challenge for each story will help you get in God’s Word and be the miracle—the messenger delivering an answer to someone’s prayer.
