About four or six weeks ago, I noticed a spot at the base of my breast that looked like an insect bite, but didn’t really itch. It was about the size of a lentil. It didn’t go away and I realized it wasn’t on the skin, but under the skin. And it got bigger, to about the size of a pea.
Last week, God spoke to me to ask for prayer for it. Honestly, it took a lot of courage because I was afraid I would doubt – that’s doubt compounded. But I did pray. Then in prayer meeting on Saturday night, I asked for prayer for it – that the spot would be gone before I go to the doctor next month for an annual exam.
I bet you can guess what comes next, after all, this is a blog about miracles… This morning the spot is gone. I can see where it was, there’s a light impression of it still, but there’s no lump there. It’s the slightest bit tender, like rubbing on a scabbed over wound, but there’s no lump there. Praise God.

“I will remember the deeds of the Lord; yes, I will remember your miracles of long ago. I will meditate on all your works and consider all your mighty deeds. Your ways, O God, are holy. What god is so great as our God? You are the God who performs miracles; you display your power among the peoples.” Psalms 77: 11-14
The memory is a fickle thing. And I’ve got those Alzhiemer genes in my make-up, so maybe more than most, I have a hard time remembering all the wonders God has done in my life. I find the memories escape me particularly when I need them most, in times of discouragement. So I decided I should document my many blessings and the ways God has shown His constant care in my life, and then when I feel discouraged, I can just go to my record and review God’s care of my life and be encouraged.
That’s a nice plan, anyway. I started a calligraphy journal (so I could improve my skills while journaling), but it really just took too long. Then I did nothing for a while… Then I decided I should start a blog so my life’s miracles can encourage other people too.
I wish I had started this about 8 years ago when God began to bring me back to Him. So many things have happened, and if I had them all for others to read, even the most brilliant atheistic mind would have a hard time refuting the hand of God at work. After a few dozen times, it’s just silly to say “and coincidentally…”
I hope that you will feel free to add your miracles to this blog as well. Even if you think of something you want to share that is not at all related to the particular miracle I’m blogging about, post it in the comments section – all miracles are welcome.
There are people who doubt that God works in and among us like he did in the times of the Bible and I have only one thing to say to them: Doubt never has produced a miracle. God rewards our faith, not our doubt. I hope that if you read one of my posts and are skeptical, that you will continue to read, and keep on reading until you understand that what’s going on here is not isolated incidents, but a pattern of God’s constant care, that He has promised in Ps. 112 will make a deep impression on those who see it. If you believe in miracles, you will see the pattern.
And how does a person believe in miracles? It’s just a simple decision to maintain an open mind about the possibility that a higher power could be caring for us. My prayer for you is that you will open your heart to that care.
