Something that happens that should be absolutely impossible.
Well do you?
Raymond
Yes of course.
david hobbs
Thank you Raymond.
Have you witnessed a miracle?
Raymond
Yes, we all have. Hundreds of times each day in fact.
david hobbs
Something which has suprised even you?
Raymond
Well it all depends on what you consider a 'miracle'. If you're talking of the christianised version, - making the blind see, making the crippled walk, etc.. then no I've never seen any of that.
My definition of a miracle is everything around us. Everything that's growing, living and dying is a miracle in itself.
david hobbs
That goes without saying but has anyone seem or experienced what they
would class as a miracle IE the impossible happening?

When i was 13. I don,t know if you would class it as a miracle. but to me it was a miracle.
I was home from school for the day and my dad asked me to clean the house while he went food shopping.
It wa about 11.20am, so i peeled some potato,s for chips,put the chip pan on the gas ring and left it to heat while i took the sweeping brush and started at the front door to sweep through to the kitchen.
I reckoned by the time i got t the kitchen, the fat in the pan would be hot enough to cook the chips.
Got to the kitchen and the bloody pan was on fire!!!!
I could,nt remember if i needed to throw a damp towel over the top of the pan or a saucepan of water.
I opted for the water!
It was like slow motion from that point on.
I threw the water.
I felt a womans hand push me in the chest up against the wall.
and then shove me through the kitchen door, so i fell into the living room.
Then as i was on the living room floor, i heard the explosion in the kitchen.
I got up and looked though the doorway to see that the whole kitchen was on fire, including the kitchen ceiling.
I ran out the street screaming, and sid Ames rang the fire brigade.
The kitchen was a wreck and i was crying thinking my dad was gonna kill me for this one, even though he had never hi me. This was something that i thought would get me a good slap from my dad.
My poor dad was chalk white with shock, insisted on stripping me to my vest and knickers to make sure was,nt burnt anywhere.(He,d only lost my mum 4 years before, so i can imagine the fear he felt.)
He never slapped me by the way. He just asked me if i was ok and as long as i was safe, the kitchen could always be replaced but i could,nt be.
I overheard him telling my oldest brother Paul that he had an overwhelming feeling that i was in danger, and he asked mum to protect me untill he got home.
To me, what happened was a miracle
david hobbs
Yes it was wasn't it.

I was diagnosed with Lupus and RA about 7 years back. I had been doing ti tough for sometime and had been chopping wood for the fire with a chain saw for a week to try to see us through the winter my arms were sore and my legs and I kept going just thinking I was unfit.. I woke up one day with a sore neck thought I had slept funny .. and then the next morning I awake unable to move my head at all not even open my jaw....
by the following day I was not only unable to move but even to stand and get out of bed
The doc gave me grim diagnosis giving me a perhaps 5 to 10 years left and that would be in agony with out much quality of life.. it seemed much damage was done to my kidneys already and my joints and connective tissues were fast deteriorating
I was in agony and the doc heavily medicated. Even on this medication it took me a week for me to be able to get out of bed.. but the first day out of bed I decided to go to a mediation group....
on the way to the group I began to feel light and free like I was floating I kept seeing golden light all around me .... I hobbled in to the group and did the meditation... and I just got better ..
I was seeing to doc daily at that stage I went in the next week and he asked me what had happened i said I started mediating he said what ever you did keep doing it ha!
I think it brought balanced back into my life ... my blood test came back showing I still have the antibodies but the count was 7 it had been 40,000 I took the drugs for one week they were so heavy that the doc told me if I came off them I would suffer heart attack.. I stopped them with not effect just stopped taking them and have never looked back
is it a miracle well I'm not sure .. but the doc thought so - for me it was great to have my future and health

These are amazing stories and I have told in the past how my own knees where healed instantly after a very long disability.
Miracles do happen and it has nothing to do with wishful thinking.
