I have in so many ways. Through friends, family, and strangers. Also through so many here. It is a blessing just to be "back."
Peace Be With You,

When I went to teach Bible study at the county jail, no one came. So my partner and I prayed, but still no one came. So we went out and talked to the guard and he said he could make them come but we told him
"No, it doesn't work that way. If God isn't drawing them to hear his Word then it would be a waste of time to make them come. Oh well, I guess we'll just go home."
Just then one man came up and said "You guys aren't leaving are you?".
I said, "No, if just one person wants to hear about what God has to say in his word, that's enough" and we went into the room they allow us to use at the jail. In a couple of minutes the room was filled up with other men who wanted to attend the study. Then about half way through a young man appeared at the door and came in.
He seemed to hang on every word and when I announced that the study was over he said "Wait a minute. I've been thinking that my life isn't right with God".
I explained to him the basic gospel message and he asked Jesus to be the Lord of his life and to save him.
When I left I thanked God for his Christmas gift to me of allowing me to be like a mid-wife who assisted in the birth of another child of God!

Yes I have in so many ways. Someone from my church,I think have been bringing a little gift every night for the 12 days of Christmas. They ring my door bell and before I get there they are gone. I'm not sure who it is. But i have a nice gift in a bag on my porch. My lost son came to me and brought a gift, so yes ,I've been blessed beyond my dreams. There's some other things too. I just found out I don't have cancer for the third time. So much to be thankfull for. The doctor was sure I had it, but the prayers of the CHristians turned it around. Praise God.

...and also with you!
I have been deeply blessed with a great renewal of faith. I can once again see the sacred in everyday life. This alone means so much to me.
Peace and joy to everyone.

Other than that I have too many miracles to count. (or type.)
