Meanderings of the Mind

Breathing is all it takes to be a miracle. --from the movie Garden State

Name:
Location: Chattanooga, Tennessee, United States

I was recently relocated to Chattanooga by the Postal Service due to the closing of the Remote Encoding Center I worked at in Bowling Green, KY. I had just started my first semester at WKU majoring in Nursing. Since I had recently built a house, my options were to get a lower paying job and lose my house or to move and rent my house out until I have my degree. I chose the latter. I've travelled throughout Europe with my friends and sisters which I consider the highlight of my life experiences to date. I come from a family of 6 kids--4 girls and 2 boys ranging in ages 18 to 34. Only my youngest brother is married at this point.

Miracles

Do miracles still happen today? Would we even recognize them if they did? Or would we just attribute them to some scientific explanation?

I choose to believe that I have my own miracle in the form of a functioning car. I took it in for an oil change and a physical today, and it was given a clean bill of health other than a need for some new front brakes. I realize that some mechanical geniuses may say there was nothing wrong with it in the first place. However, given the symptoms it has been displaying recently, I was bracing myself for a terminal condition or an ailment that would cost half the value of a new car. Since I specifically prayed that God would keep it running, I believe the outcome is a God thing. I fervantly hope it's a long-lasting miracle.
