Perhaps you have sat and watched one of the T.V. documentaries on 9-11 during the last few days. Can you believe it has been 10 years since that fateful day? Some of the shows recount the events as they began at 8:46am, the time the first plane hit the World Trade Center. Others record people telling first hand what happened to them.
There are countless miracle stories - for those that for whatever reason were late, didn't catch the plane to NYC, or not working that day. Sometimes it was just because timing was off by a minute or two, but that day it meant lives were saved.
There are just as many stories about miracles inside the towers - impromptu decisions that may have been taken lightly any other time, but allowed something to occur and changed a person forever after that. Many times it was about giving service, assisting someone, thinking of others, and because of that pause, change in direction, physically seeing to their comfort, the giver was saved and lived to tell the tale.
Some cynics will say the event proves miracles died a long time ago.
I say the tragedy proves people have their own choices to make and Still love abounds through evidence of miracles.
May we all feel blessed by those who gave us such great examples of what it means to participate in miracles. Record your own instances of miracles in your life in your journal for others to read. Then they too may feel the confirmation that miracles really do happen.
