Do we have modern day miracles? Or were these reserved for days gone by?

Question

Have you witnessed or heard about a modern day miracle? If so, share with us and help us to believe in miracles too.

Answer 1

I was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer during end August 2002. I underwent Whipple's procedure. this is a very dicey surgery with a lot of post surgery complications, and I seemed to have suffered almost all the complications.

At one stage when I could read from the doctors body language, that all hope was lost, my wife held onto my hand, assured me that 'I'd be fine, and not to worry.' Throughout a rapid ride in the ambulance from one hospital to another with better facilities, the accompanying doctors periodically kept on calling my name to ascertain whether I was alive or not. I had difficulty breathing even with an oxygen mask on.

The next day, in the new hospital, at one stage I felt that my hospital trolley was being pushed faster and faster and my heart beat increased, chest pained, and then suddenly there was a bright light and I found myself in a sunflower field with big sunflowers (like the ones you see in movies shot in Denmark), and suddenly I was hale and hearty and I got up and walked towards what I thought was the brightest gentlest light that didn't hurt my eyes at all. Just as I was going to get a glimpse of the being in the light I was brought back by the doctors calling out my name loudly. My heart had stopped and they had had a tough time reviving me, considering the fact that my abdomen and stomach had been stitched up (A 9 inch long cut on each arm of a V shaped incision, so they couldn't pump my chest). That was the time when I felt that I had bare glimpse of .....God? and I felt that maybe this was a miracle.

No food or liquids were given to me for a month, only drips (6 of them at a time attached to various parts of my body) kept me alive during that period. Later my diet was that of a baby's - liquids to semi-solids to solids, and now since the last three years I am back to normal food.

I am still living the miracle, almost 4 years later. My libido has increased tremendously, I have gone trekking , almost 30 kilometers (18miles in a day with a 50lb load) in the Himalayas, i have driven long distances, I even jog, but just maybe 3-5kilometers sometimes, though I try and walk at least 5 kms daily, and I am faster than many youngsters that accompany me.

Half yearly tests have so far show no recurrence of the cancer and now my doctors say that the chance of the cancer happening are as much as any normal human beings, and I have had no chemo or radio, ever, post surgery I was too weak, I would have died if Chemo or Radio had been administered then.

Yes I do feel discomfort around my stitches, and do feel like a tight band has been tied around my waist when I am gassed up, but even today I put in at least 10 hours of work and am far more active than most younger people.

Well you wanted me to share an experience of a modern day miracle, it's still happening to me and will continue for me long as live.

Yes, one more thing, rituals don't matter to me at all now, only a strong belief in God matters.

Answer 2

Miracles exist in every age. The more we know the natural law of life, the less it is a miracle as in ages gone by. The more we understand the law, the less it will be a miracle to future generations.

Answer 3

everything we do is a miracle, its just we have become accustom to our miracles we no longer see them as such.A miracle is not on a dorito chip, its not a figure on a building,Its not even a statue that appears to be crying, A miracle is you the way you feel the way you live the way you love, No one on the planet can do it like you do it/ thats the miracle, No 2 persons no matter how close or far will be the same, act the same , feel the same, all the time as another thats the miracle, when you look upon your childs eyes and feel the way you do that is a miracle, when you feel bad, happy, mad , or just tired you are the miracle, show me another just like you, feels like you, lives like you, dreams like you then i can say its no longer a miracle.until then we are all miracles/ and if i am wrong show me...JuJu

Answer 4

Absolutely I believe in miracles.

Most folks call miracles or miraculous events "coincidences" but I call them "God-incidences".

Sometimes it could be as simple as driving your automobile & something inside your head telling you to "stop" or "slow-down".
I've had this to happen.... it was midnight on a dark nearly abandoned highway, something told me to slow down. I was traveling the speed limit which was 55 in that area & I had my seat belt on, but I was in an older compact car that was not equipped with air bags. I immediatley started slowing down & at about 40 mph I had a major blow-out. Had I been traveling at 55 most likely the vehicle would have flipped due to the highway conditions.

The 2nd miracle was after I pulled into the emergency lane I could see over the guard rail & down the hillside there was a convenience store located on a secondary road. The store had actually closed at 10pm, but the clerk was still there mopping the store, her husband was sitting in their vehicle on the parking lot under a street light waiting for her. He changed the tire for me & I was back on the road within 15 minutes.

Yes I believe! :-)

Answer 5

Sometimes I look at nature or the night sky and it just knocks my head off! I think it is possible to find wonder in many things and there is definitely a magic to viewing the world in a certain way.

In terms of unexplainable miracles I know one lady who went from terminal cancer to total remission, after receiving reiki healing. I found that utterly incredible..

Answer 6

Touche a million This understand also, that contained in the perfect days perilous situations shall come. 2 For adult males will be fans of their personal selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to oldsters, unthankful, unholy, 3 without organic affection, trucebreakers, pretend accusers, incontinent, fierce, despisers of those that are solid, 4 Traitors, heady, highminded, fans of pleasures more beneficial than fans of God; 5 Having a kind of godliness, yet denying the flexibility thereof: from such shy away. 6 For of this kind are they which creep into houses, and lead captive stupid women persons weighted down with sins, led away with divers lusts, 7 Ever studying, and under no circumstances able to come back to the understand the fact.

Answer 7

Yes I believe in miracles...my oldest 3 daughters(triplets) were born almost three months early and were very tiny and spent many many weeks in the hospital and we were told they might not make it because they are so small or if they did, they might not be "normal"...today they are active 12 yr olds and all taller than me making honor roll grades and no lingering signs of prematurity at all!

Answer 9

All I've heard about are medical miracles. Like separating conjoined twins at the head, guy lives when he has a steel rod going through his head, stuff like that.

Answer 10

Miracles never happen!
That is why people talk about miracles happen centuries ago, so nobody can prove they were not accomplished!
