"Sarah! How did you do that?" I asked pointing to her feet. "How did you tie your shoes so fast?"

"Oh, Jesus came and tied my shoes," she stated.

"He did?" I was stunned by her answer and questioned her further. "What did he look like?"

"He was white," she replied.

"Was he wearing white?" I wondered if this was something she had learned about at Sunday school.

"No, he was all shiny and white."

Well, I knew that answer hadn't come from a Sunday school lesson. Besides, she said it with such conviction and forthrightness. I could not accuse her of making it all up—her shoes were tied in record time with precision beyond mere human ability!

For 25 years I have pondered this event again and again. I had been so distracted with all my duties and deadlines I almost missed it, but Sarah didn't. She got it! It was a miracle.

This event convinced me that children live a lot closer to Source (or God) than adults. Well, of course—we all came from Source and the infant, the baby; the innocent ones can still "see" Source and communicate with It freely.

When you think of it, isn't that what we're all trying to do? Find our way back to Source? Find a way to "see" with our pure angel eyes once more.

I am just starting to come to terms with this miracle and more than two dozen others I've been privileged to observe or participate in. I've come to the conclusion that "A miracle is a welcomed outcome that flies in the face of rational thinking."

As well, there's a gentle soft voice within telling me,

"It's time; Time to talk about the miracles, time to speak and time to teach."

Are you looking for a miracle? Perhaps you know someone who needs a miracle. Are you wondering if there is anything you can do to facilitate a miracle in their life or your own?
