Other than the renewing of your Spirit (which I personally think is the most amazing miracle we'll ever know), what's the most miraculous thing you've ever personally witnessed?
 
I would really love to tell my story but I know how people here feel about catholics so I will pass. Sorry!
 
Seeing the Japanese man sitting on the remains of his house out at sea, two days after the Tusnami struck.
 
The priviledge of the Holy Spirit giving me His power and leading to guide others to Christ is the most amazing thing I have ever seen. But unforunately I haven't seen this kind of miracle in a while.

I also remember hearing a story about John Wesley, riding down a country road once, and upon thinking about the lack of persecution he had recently received, immediately got off his horse and confessed is wrongdoing to God, almost immediately he was hit by a rock, thus he then precede to praise God for being worthy to suffer for Christ (Matthew 5:11-12). The story is a little off, but O how I admire that kind of faith.
 
the miracle of life and birth. Watching a baby take his or her first breath of air and open their eyes to the wonderment of this world that God has created for His children.

Watching people learn or understand a concept they have been struggling with for weeks but in an instant understanding dawns in them and their eyes glow with happiness and for an instant their soul is free of doubt, free, and illusions so that the Spirit can shine out into the world. Then they think of other things and worries and the light fades and is hidden again, but for that moment it makes all the hours trying to teach kids something worth all the time and effort.

I also like watching two people who don't understand the same language communicate and laugh together. the Holy Spirit is our common bond with the rest of Humanity.

asking God for peace in my heart, and received it in a minute!!!seems amazing to me.
 
To date, I would have to say birth of my own children.

And the night when I put my daughter to bed when she was about 5 1/2 and she started asking me numerous question about God and Jesus. Then she said, "ok, I thought so, I really get it. Mommy, will you help me pray so Jesus can live in my heart like He lives in yours?"
Talk about becoming a HUMBLE PUDDLE right then and there! Out of anyone she could have asked, she asked me those question just to make sure she understood, and then asked ME to help her pray. I will never, ever forget it my whole life! :)
 
Spring thunderstorms and the beautiful wildflowers that appear after........the grass as it bends and seems to roll across the prairie.....spring born calves trying to get the legs from being so wobbly.......trees as the reach for the sun and then turn colors in the fall.............the sunrise and sunset..........everyday I see something that reminds me of how wonderful the hand of God is..........
 
What What's the MOST great thing I've witnessed of miracled???

This may sound generic, vague, or even a cop-out, but, for me, the greatest miracle I've witnessed is when I was driving down the road and everything was going very great in my life with work and play and I was about to make a credence with myself that I would have a house And life was going to change in a great way I left one thing out of that equation when I said all those things of white picket fence happiness. … My God. He completely made me realize through that financially traumatic circumstance that He is to included in my life , always being told by me that He wants to be able to lead my lige. Lol, I guess that's not so generic or whatever as just a different means by which God can do a 'Jonah' reprimand , or, even a 'Job', to right our ships and that truly was an accident that was the beginning transformation in my life to see how greatly thru sudden unexpected pain miraculously timed to CHANGE me positively changed my life and got me thinking much diffetently about my God in my life :-)

Ohh yes i can't agree more :)

Fruit flies, dude. fruit flies.

edit: nevermind. they're not as cool as I had originally thought.
 
After years and years of praying for him, leading my Grandfather to accept Christ 3 days before he died.
 
wow...amazing, pickupyurcross!

I had a similar situation with my adopted dad. He was such a great guy in my eyes, but he didn't know the Lord. Sometimes it's harder for people who are so kind-hearted to understand their need for a savior, unlike those of us who know how much trouble we can get into on our own. :)

But two years before he died, he accepted the Lord and became even more of a hero to me than ever before. He was dying of lung cancer and not long before he died we had one of many heart-to-heart chats. He said, "You know, I know that a lot of people are praying for God to heal me; but, I know that if He did, I'd go back to being the same ole jerk I was before and I'd be lost." I'll never forget that as long as I live.
 
Last week at church there were several small children who recieved the gift of speaking in tongues. It was so amazingly authentic. It wasnt like you see on TV where a preacher is standing directly over you shouting for you to recieve the Holy Ghost. We were having praise and worship like any other service and I look over across the room and I see one boy about 5 or 6yrs old with his hands raised and red faced. I watched him for a moment and realized it was happening. As several adults walked over to pray with him a few other young boys began to recieve the gift as well. It was so awesome. I don't believe I had cried like that in a long time.

I know some of you may not believe in this so called "charismatic phenomena" but I tell you it is most certainly real. It happened to me and I have witnessed it happen to others.
 
This is so cool! Hey can you guys check out my blog and tell me what you think? It's a Love Thing I just started though so input would be nicee! It need work I know!
 
I have seen God's miraculous healing in my life & am a living testimony of the goodness of God!! I went to the gynae to find out why I wasn't falling pregnant to discover that I had advance cervical pre-cancer. The recommendation was a histerectomy. I was devastated - I desperately wanted to be a mom, it seemed so unreal. That night all of the elders & the pastor from my church came & prayed with me. I had a minor op & 3 months later was pregnant. I now have 2 healthy kids - a boy & a girl. I still get amazed at how blessed I am & thank God for His faithfulness! Nothing is impossible for Him. We serve a mighty, miracle working God who cares deeply about the details in our lives.
