Saturday, April 18, 2015. In my reading today, I want to share this from David Jeremiah. Praising God for Miracles. My help comes from the LORD, who made heaven and earth. Among the stories connected to the memory of Francis of Assisi is this one:. We should always remember to praise God for His miracles in whatever form they come. He blesses, heals, rescues, delivers, helps, and uplifts more times every day than we can count. We should always be saying, “Thank You, Lord! Greetings in the Name of the Lord.
