The sonnet challenges the notion that miracles are confined to history, asserting that God’s power remains active today for those with faith. It recalls past wonders—like parted seas and healed lives—as evidence of divine might that persists unchanged. The poem emphasizes that believers can still command mountains to move, as Jesus taught, and see the impossible yield to steadfast trust. It celebrates the continuity of God’s miracles, urging the faithful to embrace this living power and witness its effects in the present.

Why banish wonders to the days of old,
When God, unchanging, holds His power still?
For those who trust, His marvels yet unfold,
Through faith, we bend the mountains to His will.
The past recounts the seas that split in twain,
The blind made whole, the dead restored to breath,
Yet now, as then, His might does not wane,
For belief unlocks the chains of death.
“Be gone!” we cry to peaks that block our way,
And stone must yield to words of steadfast heart,
The Lord, who spoke the stars to light the day,
Still bids the impossible depart.
So let us claim the miracles anew,
For God’s great works shine forth to faithful view.
