Do you believe in miracles?

Every day, things happen that have no apparent 'rational' explanation! Take for example what happened to me on July 18, 1980 when I was 14 years old. At 4:40am I woke up with a sense of panic that there was something wrong with my dad. I dismissed it and went back to sleep. At 2:30pm one of the yard monitors at school came to my classroom and told me that there was someone to see me in the interview room. When I arrived I found my social worker (I was a ward of the state at the time). She told me to sit down because she had some bad news for me. When I sat down she informed me that my father had died that morning. "What time?" I asked, "No, don't tell me, I'll tell you! It was 4:40am wasn't it?" She looked at me in shock and confirmed the time. The day of his funeral I had an asthma attack and ended up going to the hospital where he had died. I told the nurse that I thought I had the attack because I was stressed over the funeral and informed her that dad had died in that hospital the previous friday morning. She told me that she was working that morning and asked his name so I told her. As it turned out she was with him when he died. Apparently, he had a heart attack and died, but they managed to revive him. He called my name but then his heart stopped again and they couldn't revive him. The only explanation I can give is that at some level, I 'heard' that call and woke up. Yes, some of you might say it was just a coincidence... but it was one heck of a coincidence if you ask me. After all, I woke up at the exact time of his death with a conviction that there was something wrong with him. Another friend of mine went into hospital to have a histerectomy because she was having problems with menopause. When the doctors opened her up they found that her whole abdomen was riddled with cancer. They didn't have time to operate at that time so they closed her back up. They told her she only had weeks to live but they would schedule her for surgery to see if they could remove some of it to prolong her life for up to six months. Anyway, she called the pastor of our church and asked him to come pray for her. He and an elder went and laid hands on her and prayed for healing. Two days later the doctors put her in surgery to try to remove as much as they could... only to find that the cancer had entirely disappeared (remember, this surgeon had seen the cancer with his own eyes!). This lady is still alive over 30 years later! So, do you believe in miracles? Have you experienced any miracles that you would like to share here?
