The hidden miracles

When a relative or friend is facing a terminal illness, the natural tendency (of course) is to pray for that person's miraculous healing. A pastor wrote in the Bowling Green Daily News about the wife of a dear friend who died from complications that resulted from a surgery. While they were focused on praying for the woman, something else happened:

The real miracle was the peace and the love that God provided during this time.

Her husband, my dear friend, and his boys were visited with such an amazing peace. People the family did not know showed up and shared messages from God that encouraged their hearts. The Word of God spoke to them most clearly and the reality of God’s Spirit at times was unmistakable. The mindset of my friend and the joy in his heart are something I will never forget.

Many miracles happened instead of the woman's life being saved, including friends and families reconciling, marriages healing and people focusing on God.
