Midterm Requirement for Theology 6

Jesus responds to our prayers with quiet miracles. God is responsive to people’s needs. He
is not aloof to the human plight. Even if he is inconvenienced by the request, his heart is larger
than the stone jars. Some have come to question the divine response to human suffering and have
concluded that there is no God. But this quiet miracle belies that conclusion by suggesting that
sometimes God does His work without taking out an ad in the paper.

This quiet miracle is the manifestation of Christ’s glory. But no one actually saw it. Nor was there
a thunder clap to herald the event. God’s glory is not what humans expect it to be. His glory is not
for mere display, but has the purpose to fulfil his service to his creation. He buries Himself in a
quiet tomb to do his work on Easter where no one can see or hear. As Martin Luther said, “God
hides his pearls in a pile of dung so the devil can’t find them.”
