| The Summer of Miracles | | 2008-07-20 18:08:44 | | OR A BIG STEP BACKWARD?In many ways the summer of 1969 was the most magical in my life. It changed my life, or rather formed the foundation for all that I am. It had nothing to do with sex, drugs, or rock and roll. It wasn’t about Woodstock, even though my parents and grandparents were actually in said town antiquing the weekend there-of. It was about scientific and engineering feats that captured our imagination. As a nation we held our heads high. My girlish fancies were captured by a ‘fairy tale’ young prince who was finally allowed to meet ... | | By: The Pink Flamingo | | |
| | | Miracles -- An Update | | 2008-07-05 15:47:37 | | Just thought I would provide a quick update to my post about miracles. It's June now, and when I posted about my finances back on May 4th, I didn't know what was going to happen to allow me to cover my expenses into June. Well, although nothing major happened to improve my overall financial status, I did have a few minor happenings that are worthy of mentioning. For starters, two of my credit cards automatically extended my credit (without a request) -- so I am now able to cross the threshold into July. Also, because my wife and I patiently waited for four months for our apartment management to arrange repair of a minor plumbing problem, management not only fixed the problem, they decided to reward our patience with a substantial discount to June's rent. Taken together, these three things had a significantly positive effect on my finances. Would I be so bold as to call them miracles? Why not? I didn't seek any of it. And I certainly needed the help. And the help materialized. In the me | | By: The Life Intended | | |

| Independence Day | only freedom can work such miracles | | 2008-07-04 12:48:05 | | Excerpt from a Romaninan newspaper, Evenimentulzilei article, called "Ode to America," written by Mr. Cornel Nistorescu. via God, Faith and a Pen blog of Dr. Hesham Hassaballa. ~ An Ode to America ~"Why are Americans so united? They would not resemble one another even if you painted them all one color! They speak all the languages of the world and form an astonishing mixture of civilizations and religious beliefs. Still, the American tragedy turned three hundred million people into a hand put on the heart. Nobody rushed to accuse the White House, the Army, or the Secret Service that they are only a bunch of losers. Nobody rushed to empty their bank accounts. Nobody rushed out onto the streets nearby to gape about. Instead the Americans volunteered to donate blood and to give a helping hand. After the first moments of panic, they raised their flag over the smoking ruins, putting on T-shirts, caps and ties in the colors of the national flag. They placed flags on buildings and cars as if | | By: Inspirations and Creative Thoughts | | |

| Six Surgical Miracles | | 2008-06-17 00:03:27 | | A 6-year-old Texas girl had the entire right half of her brain removed to stop devastating seizures; amazingly, her memory and personality are expected to remain intact. But this is just one of many incredibly delicate and difficult surgeries performed in recent history. From a doctor who operated on himself to surgeons who execute complicated procedures on the tiniest fetuses while they are still in the womb, here are six of the most unusual surgical miracles in modern history.1. Surgery to Remove Half a Child's Brain. On June 11, 6-year-old Jessie Hall of Aledo, Texas, had the entire right side of her brain removed by neurosurgeon Ben Carson at Johns Hopkins Children's Center in Baltimore. The rare procedure is called a hemispherectomy, and though drastic, it was considered the best possible treatment for Jessie, who suffers from Rasmussen's encephalitis, a progressive degeneration of the cerebral cortex that causes uncontrollable seizures. Though doctors do not fully understand how, | | By: Blog Inspiration | | |
| | The Language of God-5: The nasty problem of miracles | | 2008-06-13 09:11:21 | | By Mano Singham
As I said before, sophisticated religious believers like Francis Collins and John Lennox always start out by arguing for a God of the Ultimate Gaps. The insurmountable problem that they then face is that their emotional need to believe in a Personal God who communicates with them individually and can answer their prayers requires them to go well beyond the narrow role they initially assigned to a God of the Ultimate Gaps, and results in them getting tied up in all kinds of logical knots.

| | A Day of Miracles | | 2008-05-25 00:49:00 | | SATURDAY, MAY 24Early this morning, around 1AM Memphis time my niece was a passenger in a car that was broadsided head-on at an intersection. It flipped over and rolled, ending up on its roof. Laura’s leg went through the window, severing the femoral artery. By the time EMS arrived on scene she was in and out of consciousness. By the time my sister arrived at the ER they told her it was extremely bad. She lost quite a bit of blood. 27 stitches later Laura is home, hopped up on pain pills, holding court with her friends.

| | Miracles… Do they really happen and is it wrong to expect them? | | 2008-05-13 15:34:18 | | Having had only three months of paid employment in the last three years, my finances have finally come to the end of the line. Credit cards are maxed, assets have long been liquidated – there is enough credit left to wiggle through May, and maybe just maybe enough to cross the threshold into June, but truly, not a penny more. Game over. Done. Finished.So what happens then in four, five, six weeks time? Will my family be evicted and forced to live on the street or will some miraculous solution save us? And what is my responsibility insofar as causing a miraculous solution to manifest? Should I begin to do something that doesn’t feel right in my heart just because I have run out of money? In other words, does the apparent severity of my situation necessitate compromising my beliefs and values? Or do I simply continue to do just as I have been doing for the last three years – that is, everything I can do to align myself with God/Love and the perfect/purposeful Universe? I mean, if | | By: The Life Intended | | |

| | | Mystics and Miracles | | 2007-11-29 06:14:00 | | Mystics and Miracles: True Stories of Lives Touched by God Bert Ghezzi ISBN 0-8294-1772-9 Amazon link From the introduction: "Miracles intrigue us. They burst into our humdrum routines with startling revelations of the supernatural realm. Some people dismiss them as imagined or psychosomatically induced phenomena. But most of us welcome news of visions, healings, and other divine interventions." "We get the word mystic from a Greek root that means "mystery". A mystic is a person who is "introduced into the mysteries". Broadly speaking, all Christians are mystics. We believe that by faith we are initiated into the mysteries of Christ's death and resurrection. But most Christians are not mystics in the technical sense because we have yet to penetrate the Christian mysteries in depth. Mystics enjoy a special closeness to God. They get rid of all the clutter in their hearts to make room for God." Mr. Ghezzi has arranged the mystics he has chosen into 6 categories. Part One--Miracles of Love Healing Touch--St. Martin de Porres Little Miracles of Affection--St. Theresa Margaret Royal Miracles--St. Elizabeth of Hungary Miracles from Failures--Venerable Solanus Casey Part Two--Miraculous Prayer Miracles That Made Peace--St. Catherine of Siena The "Accidental" Mystic--St. Lutgarde of Aywieres Miracles in the Desert--St. Anthony of Egypt Miracles to the Rescue--St. Clare of Assisi Part Three--Dreams, Visions, and Other Wonders Visions--St. Perpetua Miracles of the Heart--St. Gertrude the Great Wounded Healer--Blessed padre Pio of Pietrelcina Part Four--Miracles of Conversion Miracles in Action--St. Dominic Miracles in Death---St. Sabas and St. Apphian Miracles in His Mouth--St. Anthony of Padua The Miracle is the Message--St. Vincent Ferrer Part Five--Miracles to Awaken Us Miracles for the Poor--St. Francis of Assisi A Miracle in Her Soul--St. Teresa of Avila Raising the Dead and Other Miracles--St. Francis of Paola An Astonishing Invasion of the Su | | By: Changemaker: Healing Mind, Body and Soul | | |

But he never quit looking. Ever since the Levi’s factory closed, he’d been unemployed, and with winter raging on, the chill had finally hit home.
