There can be MIRACLES
When you believe
Though hope is frail
It's hard to kill
Who know what miracle
You can achieve
When you believe
Somehow you will
You will when you believe

I myself am a part of a miracle not of my own making but God's. I have been hit by a truck,lived under a viaduct,been homeless and addicted and now at 52 I have my own place,new friends, and I am going to school full time to get a degree. That in itself is a miracle for thru God all things become miracles. I am a believer now and I do not know how or why I am still here but from now on I will pay it forward because someone else took care of me.

Well honey, here's an example of miracle though. I had a friend who was involved in an accident after being knocked down by a car. Doctor said that he had a cancerous tumor in his brain and only had days to survive though. In this situation, only a miracle can save him though.

Let's pray for him that he can pull through and survive this ordeal, or he'll be with the lord soon.

Cheers and have a nice week ahead :)

I think that things happen for a variety of reasons. If for whatever reason something is thrown off track and it hasn't completed it's task, then a miracle may be in store. This isn't the typical miracle of someone waking from a coma, or coming back from the dead. It's just another way of looking at it. And I think that it probably does happen everyday.

i do. just being here is a miracle for me. being born and made by my parents. but that's a given. i guess, miracles happen in other forms of life, that it may not be noticed by people, but for the better part, it is a miracle happening and unfolding. here in my country, it may seem like poverty is hopeless. but i get to see peopl and organizatins, forming like a barricade against poverty, helping poor children and homeless families. in this, isn't it a miracle in disguise? this is what i think. a miracles' definition if you look it up in a dictionary says a phenomenal occurence, but for me it is a daily occurence that happens but we only don't see it. children who experience life's ugliness and then surviving it is miracle enough. in my life, a second chance of hope is my miracle, and once, my grandmother had a heart attack, and we all thought she wouldn't make it, but here goes a miracle. she's well and alive and still laughing hard. it's not hard to believe in miracles, if you know how make it and look at it. =)

Hi, Moon:

Honestly, I do because of the second life given by God to Gaia, the daughter of my younger brother. She was born two years age and later found by her doctors at the age of one month to have a rare disease called biliary atresia. She has to undergo a liver transplant the soonest possible time. Her parents have to raise a whopping amount of Four Million Pesos. With the help of God they have able to raise the amount through friends, relatives and people around the world whom they don't know. My brother opened a website for her to reach out to millions of people as soon as possible for they given only 9 months for the major operation. Thereafter, she was brought to Singapore and it was successful. After her first birthday she have tto undergo a treatment again and her parent has to raise another three million pesos as she stayed in the I.C.U. for months. Her problem was then detected. Indeed i would say it is really a miracle. God is so Powerful through prayers. She is now nearly three- years old and now staying back home in the Philippines. Thank God for God is so good. A miracle indeed!

Thanks to your question. Have a wonderful day!

I do. Miracles happen when we least expect them. I knew some did happen in my own life. I was unaware of them until I ran short of human explanations to convince myself that they were not. God has been so good to me. I don't say this to make you or other people believe that prayers can indeed produce miracles...but my experiences in the past can only say over and over that I have no doubt whatsoever that miracles, even in this modern time, can still happen. And to ask why?.....Because FAITH CAN MOVE MOUNTAINS.

Miracles happen to all of us in one way or another. We all have stories to relate with personal experiences through healing, miracles of overcoming obstacles in our lives; it is a non stop daily occurrence somewhere on this planet of humanity. It gives us hope and strength when we are down; it promises to reach out and touch our lives and that in itself is a gift. If we didn't expect miracles in our lives, we would never have the hope to overcome tragedy.

No. I believe in coincidence without meaning - serendipidy - accidents. And people ascribing magical meaning to things that have natural explanations they don't know (e.g. ancient beliefs about the sun and a flat Earth) - and people making up apocryphal myths to support some proposition they want to believe. For me, the actual real world and universe is "miracle" enough - especially without any supernatural explanations. And it appears increasingly marvelous the more I learn.

I do believe in miracles; I hear about them all the time. I have experienced them myself, & I know others who have had miracles in their lives, too.

I had a friend who worked in the World Trade Center, at the time when terrorists destroyed it. Because of the nature of his job, he was always early for work; it was an international company. But, the night before, his wife became sick. She said she would keep their 5 year child home from kindergarten the next day (she was too sick to bring her).

However my friend realized that his wife needed to rest, so he decided to take the daughter to school, himself. That made him one-half an hour late for work. It was a half an hour between life & death.

Some people dismiss things like that as coincidences. I have seen too many "coincidences" to not realize they are, indeed, miracles.

My great aunt has lived through 3 disasters from which she survived.

First, she was in the Empire State Building the day an airplane accidentally flew into the building, at about the 87th floor (not positive about which floor).

Her desk was right near a window, and she happened to look up, just at the moment the plane was about to hit the building. She was either one floor above or one floor below where it hit. She was thrown across the room & the noise was deafening, she told us. She was alive, though.

This may not sound like a miracle, but it was only the first of 3 events that happened where she should have died, but didn't.

The next one was at her home. It was a rainy day, so she decided to clean the house. She was in the upstairs bathroom, cleaning, with the window wide open, for fresh air.

There was a loud thunderstorm going on while she was cleaning the bathroom. She was cleaning the tub when she dropped the sponge. At the precise second that she bent down to pick up the sponge, she heard an explosion. She thought a bomb had exploded. Well, it wasn't a bomb, but it may just as well have been.

When she stood up, there was no more bathroom! Other than one piece of wall, the entire room, which had been all tiles, was now in tiny pieces, piled up all around her. The remaining piece of wall showed where the lightning had hit.

The lightning came in the window and hit the wall inside the bathtub. If my aunt had not bent over when she did, SHE would have been hit directly by the lightning.She felt that someone had knocked the sponge right out of her hand; but that was impossible...right? Or was it? Once she stood up & saw what had happened, the hairs on the back of her neck stood up & she got goosebumps. She now really wondered about that feeling that someone(thing) had knocked the sponge out of her hands.

The fire department could not believe she was unharmed. They insisted that if she was standing where she said she was, she would have taken a direct hit...and would be dead. She explained about the sponge falling from her hand; they could not believe the "luck" of the timing. The fire chief said, "it was a miracle." We believe it was — her second miracle.

The third one was more obviously a miracle. She had a job with an oil company. Her office was in a trailer at the end of a very long & wide pier. There were many trailers along the pier, as well as oil rigs alongside the pier & huge containers filled with oil.

She was very happy that day. She had just celebrated a wedding anniversary; and her husband had bought her a fur coat, the first time they could afford something like that. She took it off & started her work. A couple hours later, she heard a deafening explosion, which rattled everything in the trailer. Her boss went to the door, looked out & told everyone to get out.

There was a second explosion, and everyone was told to leave everything & just run. They did...but my aunt heard these words — "don't leave." So she did not leave. She grabbed her fur coat for protection, wrapped it around herself & hid under the desk.

There were more explosions all around her. She was terrified, but stayed there & prayed. She thought she would never see her husband again. She lost herself in prayer & noise until, suddenly, it was completely quiet. She still stayed where she was, afraid to move. Eventually, firefighters came into the trailer to make sure there were no more flames & to look for bodies. One firefighter yelled "there's someone alive here."

They could hardly get her out of there. She kept saying, "someone told me don't leave." They convinced her that it was now safe for her to leave. As they helped her along the pier, she could see the fires burning all along the pier. It turned out that when something caught fire, it spread to an oil vat, causing a chain reaction of explosions.

Many people died that day, including everyone who had worked in my aunt's trailer. Everyone had run, and they all died. My aunt could not explain why she had stayed, when the firefighters asked her why she did not run with the rest of them. She finally told them what she had heard. They looked at each other, shocked; and they said. "it must have been a miracle."

Yes, it was a miracle, her 3rd big miracle. She was obviously meant to live, for some reason. I am sure there were many other miracles in her life, smaller ones, that she may not have even noticed.

I believe that we live with miracles all the time. They are not usually big, newsworthy miracles; but they are miracles, nonetheless. And, sometimes, they are very big, where they really get your attention.

I most definitely believe in miracles.

Peace.
