Chicken Soup for the Soul: Miracles – CLOSED

by Mommy on October 14, 2010

Do you believe in Miracles?  I sure do.  The biggest miracle that has ever happened in my life is the birth of my daughter.  Sometimes it’s easy to think that there is nothing more to life than what we see, but every once in a while you hear a story that simply is just too much of a coincidence to not believe in miracles.

Chicken Soup for the Soul: Miracles is 101 True Stories of Healing, Faith, Divine Intervention, and Answered Prayers! I read a few of these stories and they gave me goosebumps.  The ones that struck me the hardest were the prayers for kids.  I was in tears (anyone surprised?!?) while reading these amazing stories that seem simply impossible – but are very possible if you just have even a little faith.

My Mother read nearly the entire book, and she is a hard core Christian.  She said that nearly all the stories are inspirational, but a few were on the darker side.  However, she was very surprised that the Chicken Soup for the Soul books had such a strong Christian and Godly perspective.  Nearly all the stories were about the power of prayer on a Christian level.

Chicken Soup for the Soul: Miracles is great for anyone that needs a pick me up, needs some faith or is already has a lot of faith and loves reading about the power of prayer.

We all recently witnessed a modern day  Miracle – the miners in Chili who were rescued!  For 17 days, they were thought to be dead!  If that isn’t a miracle what is?

There is a book for Teacher’s on the Chicken Soup site. I was thinking it would make a nice gift for a teacher for Christmas. One of my little granddaughter’s is our miracle. Before she was born there were some problems and my daughter was rushed into the hospital to have her monitored. They did a section because they were concerned about the baby’s heart. When she was born her heart was not functioning right. We all did a lot of praying and a week later her heart settled down. She was on heart medication for a year and when she went in for a check up her heart was perfectly normal. She will be 2 in a few months and she is an active little girl and you would never know she struggled that first week of her life.

On the website I found out that they sell: Chicken Soup for the Soul: Teacher Tales — this would make a great teacher gift:) The miracle in my life is that they found my mom’s ovarian cancer so early — usually they don’t find this type of cancer until it’s too late. It was a complete miracle that they found it and now she is on the road to recovery:) Thanks for the chance to win.

My miracle is my daughter Emma. She was born 13 weeks early and was 2 pounds and 14 inches. After much praying and 77 days in our childrens’ hospital Emma is now a busy little 30 pounder who will soon be 3. She has no signs of any issues from being born so prematurely and we are so thankful to God for this.

I saw the book ‘Chicken Soup for the Soul: What I Learned from the Cat’ on their site. It looks sounds really cute.

A miracle of my own would be my whole life. I was never supposed to live passed the of 8. Well I’m now 24 and still fighting for 80. =)

Chicken Soup for the Soul: Think Positive would be great to read on a bad day. Heidi, my rescue dog is my little miracle, adopted three weeks after my beloved dog died after 13 years suddenly. Heidi needed us as much as we needed her. She helped me lose an additional thirty pounds by walking her daily.

Veronica Garrett October 30, 2010 at 1:43 am

I saw Chicken Soup for the Soul: Tales of Christmas. It sounds very interesting. Our miracle is our daughter. We had been trying to have a child for two years and finally it happened. She is now seventeen.
