Let's share our experiences with God's mercy and divine power
Most of the miracles we read in Scripture can make us ask if the small miracles we also see day to day are 'miracles,' but I say they are!Let's share our experiences with God's mercy and divine power
I was a skeptic of the people who said that they had seen a bright light at the end of a tunnel when they were in a near death situation. I can relate to "doubting Thomas". My understanding changed when I lost control of my pickup truck while going down hill to cross over a river bridge. I fishtailed it three times and rolled off an embankment before I reached the river bridge. The whole incident seemed like it was in slow motion and seemed like it took 20 or 30 minutes to roll over completely, and during the whole process, the inside of the cab of the pickup was light up with a bright and soothing light, even under the dash which is always dark. I instantly knew that it was God's presence with me, and the amazing part of it was that I was fully conscious the whole time, unlike the other near death experiences I had heard off. It totalled my pickup, and I did not even get a scratch.Let's share our experiences with God's mercy and divine power

You sure know how to bring tears of joy! Praise our dear God, amen.Here's a couple , one Fri I was getting ready to take my Royal Rangers to a Jamboree in Raleigh .. There was a young man at my neighbors door and I told him I didn't think Keith was at home, could I help him .. He walked over and said his son was at the emergency room with his wife and he was there to get money for a job he did for the hospital .. I said Jesus can heal your son .. and asked him if he was a Christian . he said no I said let me pray for your son .. I got back from the jamboree late Sun and he had come by and told I got off work Mon at 4 .. He was at my house Mon and told me his wife and son were waiting on him when he made it back to the hospital and his son had just recovered all of a sudden and fine while waiting .. He asked if I would come pray for his mil that she had went blind a couple yrs ago . I said sure thing and got directions cleaned up from work and got their about 7 .. She was scheduled for experimental surgery on her eyes that next morning at 6, they were both yellow like she was wearing contact lens or something and horrible looking .. There were 5-6 people there and I witnessed a minute then took my oil bottle out of my pocket and prayed the prayer of faith in James asked Jesus to heal her and anointed her with oil and said I believe you will receive a good report in Jesus name .. That Tues evening the young man was back at my house and told me as she lay ready for surgery to begin the Dr just put his tools back on the tray and said she's healed, he didn't know what happened, there's nothing wrong anymore ..
If someone tells me what's wrong when asked to pray it's fine but I don't usually ask to know details and don't care .. I rarely follow up or even want their names . Just pray, believe and leave it up to Jesus .. I asked the man if he wanted to get saved after all that and he said he wasn't ready yet , but I felt like the Lord told me to stand down, that the young man was on the hook .. So I just smiled and told him OK but remember no one is promised tomorrow ..
My life is one big miracle. I gave up my career to live the Sermon on the Mount. Began as a part time minimum wage worker in a dead end job. Doing all to the glory of God. And retired early on my own dime. Never experiencing being out of work even through two major recessions and job closings. Always went to work the next Monday. No medicine other than aspirin since the 1980s. Once as a factory manager I lost my job on behalf of the employees, holding out for a fair wage for a fair amount of work in return. They later canned me which resulted in a far better job and benefits. Better wage and enough to retire on early. It is an adventure...........
