Miracles:

 We just watched a movie on Amazon titled "The Cokeville Miracle". It was based on a true story where children were held hostage in an elementary School in Wyoming. Without giving up the story line it was a miracle and the children, the town of Cokeville and people around the country were praying. It is a story that is more than worthwhile to watch.

It reminded me of when our girl Sarah went suddenly blind. We were praying, friends were praying and people who knew us or of us were praying. Three weeks later her vision suddenly reappeared. Her vet and the eye specialist said it had not happened before and they were without explanation. We knew the explanation.

Or during the 'Spring' wildfire. We were evacuated for 15 days not knowing if we had a home or not. A friend came to our motel room who knew how to access a cell tower camera. It was pointed directly at our home and we saw clearly from the mountain across from our mountain a bull dozer line around our property.

We were praying, friends/family were praying, people networked out and they were praying and we had people all over the country and several other countries praying. All were praying that our home would be spared. When we were finally able to return home we discovered that there was no bull dozer line at all but the fire had burned up to the perimeter of our property and our home and all our out buildings had been spared. The wildfire burned the grass within 2' of our wood shed, along both sides of the garage, along both sides of our house but we had no damage.

When we surveyed our property we could see where sparks had ignited small area's but mysteriously gone out. When hundreds of Christians - maybe thousands all pray for the same result and the need is immediate you will never convince me that sincere prayer doesn't work. Sarah could suddenly see again and it was baffling to her doctors. Our home and land is the only green area left in a burn scar area.

When bad things happen and you feel helpless to help I suggest you pray to the one who can do something. Our prayers may not all be answered but He can change things. I wonder if all us Christians got together and prayed how some of these world crisis could be resolved that are according to His will. Something to think about.

Amen! Our God can do the impossible. Today at Easter I consider how He brought the greatest miracle (the empty tomb) from the greatest mess (the cross).
