has a miracle ever occurred in your life?

Either a major or minor miracle - it doesn't matter. Has anyone ever had something wonderful happen of which you felt entirely undeserving and/or knew you had little or nothing to do with its occurrence? That it was instigated by God or by another power? Mine occurred when I was a struggling single mom and had absolutely no money for Christmas. I had a little girl who understood that I couldn't afford much in the way of day to day indulgences, but Christmas is different. If you've been in a similar position, you know how heartbreaking it can be to literally live hand-to-mouth and try not to let on just how bad it is to your children. The arrival of Christmas was keeping me up at night with stress. Oh, I know, that are MUCH BIGGER troubles in the world and I had much bigger troubles of my own at the time but to not be able to give my girl Christmas was just too much for me. It seemed like such a small want. Then, a few days before Christmas, I received a check in the mail. I had cashed out a 401(k) a while back but some of my contributions hadn't been fully withdrawn Call it a processing error but it was a check for something like $147 Not a lot, but there was Christmas that year for my daughter. If it hadn't happened, there would have been no Christmas. I know it could be just timing and coincidence, but the issue had preyed on my mind so much, and relief had come in a form I hadn't anticipated in the least. I choose to believe that I wanted something small, very very badly, and that it was for another person, and maybe it had become such a pivotal point in whether I would have the strength to carry on or go under, tnat God chose to give me a minor miracle.
