  As a child, I felt most connected to God while in nature, and in many respects nature has always been my saving grace, especially while growing up. Nature has always spoken very loudly of an incredible creator, a creator that cannot be denied. Nature to me is so perfect and she speaks of such perfect order. I think because of nature, I always knew there was a God. I found peace and refuge in Mother Nature and retreated there often. My favorite things to do were climbing neighborhood fences, trees and riding my bike at the near by creek where I could not resist getting into, with fish often swimming up my pants leg . I was very happy to be in the country and am very thankful I got to grow up in a beautiful rural area such as Sonoma County, California, at the time.
It has always been an incredible marvel to me to study the nature of life as you look out into the vast cosmos watching shooting stars, or study the miracle inside of each and every tiny flower, so perfect in its form. One of my very favorite places to be is the ocean. I love the rhythm of the waves crashing in against the shore and rocks, the sound of seagulls screatching, the smell of moist salt air and the feel of warm sand against my body as I walk barefoot or lay on the beach in total peace to be so at home. I love to think about the vast life forms in the ocean and consider all of the colors and textures to be found there. There is so much life there it seems so endless. I want very much to one day swim with the dolphins, with them in their incredible world, this beautiful place, so perfect, the ocean. Life all around us in so much abundance is a miracle. Our world is so very beautiful.

God has truly blessed me personally and directly with miracles as well. I feel touched by God, Loved by God, Protected by God. I feel called by HIM, and I just Pray that I will be Used by HIM in a way that allows me to give all I have because that is how much I love my God.

I will never forget this one day God saved my life ….. I was very pregnant and I was at the medical clinic getting prenatal care and my husband was suppose to pick me up after and take me home, as he had the car. He never showed and I had no money, no way home and no one to call for a ride nearly 40 miles away. I knew I had to hitchhike. It was pretty terrible being in that position, but I was stuck. On my way home after a couple of rides, God spoke to me through my intuition. A spiritual voice told me, Like an angel, "A man in a white truck is going to come and ask you if you want a ride. Do NOT get in." I was calm and safe with no fear. Sure enough a man in a white truck came by and asked if I wanted a ride. I said NO thanks and kept walking. He left, but came back a little bit later. This time he was going the opposite direction, stopped in front of me and was a little more stern. I said No. He came again and this time he was down right mean and demanding that I get in. I could tell that he had serious ill intent. I walked on the other side of the road, determined. He left me alone.
If it was not for God's warning I am sure I would have accepted a ride from the man as I had a long way home yet to travel and I would have had no reason to say no. God saved my life that day. I never felt fear or doubt. I was blessed and protected by my God Jesus and his Angels that day.

You know, it is so funny, I never told my husband that story, not even on the day it happened. It was a very special and meaningful experience, and yet I didn't tell my own husband the very day it happened. That tells you how far apart we were. I am sure I never told him because he would never get it.

Today I now know how vitally important it is to be with a like-minded husband so that I can freely share what is the # 1 most important thing in my life, GOD, and so we can share in the many miracles God gives together.

I have more miracles to share and many direct experiences which let me know that God is very real, alive and actually aware of me.

  The Miracle of Kindness

  I was being forced to find myself an apartment. I was getting out on my own and needed just a one bedroom place. Carefully I search the newspaper, and then decided to just ride around town and look for "For Rent" signs. As I was checking out one place, I ran across a young lady from Africa. She was looking for a two bedroom apartment for herself
, her maid and her children. She was on foot. I offered to take her around the next day while I continued my search for a one bedroom. Remember, I didn't know her. I just wanted to be kind. The story is too long to tell extensively, but it was because of her insistance at one of the places that I got my one bedroom apartment. It had already been rented out, but because of the young African lady's insistance to see the place, the time was just ripe for the new owners to come to the house. They questioned me and decided to give me the apartment instead of the one who had just paid. The apartment was cute, cozy and EXACTLY what I had been looking for and even more. It was in the right location, at the right price and in a very excellent neighborhood. Need I say more. The young African lady, whose name was Juanita also got her a place too. Kindness is a miracle in itself. Praise God!

  My husband walked out after I stood devoted to my decision to follow God first and foremost. I had just had my first daughter- of whom I had prayed for about 3 months prior to that. (my fifth child- however) In any case, it was Nov 14 when he left. I rose every morning regardless of my lack of sleep, at 6am. So I could start my day in Gods hands. By the time Februaury came, my daughter and my two year old were very sick. Long story short and many sent home visits to emerg. I insisted they test for Whooping cough (as by this time- 6 weeks later I had not slept for each time I lay my head on my pillow- one of two would be coughing and gasping and throwing up all over again.....) I was convinced, although I did not know how or why, that they had this disease. My daughter was the one I had tested, as she was deathly ill at a tiny age of 5 months. As far as I knew- we had not been around anyone with this problem- but neither of my children had been immunized...my daughter was admitted with a WBC that continued to rise regardless of the medications. She surprised the Dr's and nurses at her ability to clear her lungs-(for those who don't know whooping cough actually paraylizes the villi that help move along the caught up substances in the lungs- leaving the lungs to fill up) She ended up with a White blood cell count so high (120) they were concerned her blood would coagulate.... She was rushed by Ambulance to Vancouver Children's Hospital. They discovered she had all sorts of underlying ussues with her blood and nothing was as it should be- infact she had many critical levels that created an urgency for a blood transfusion. Her protein was so low, she was not able to pass any water- but it all soaked into her tissues and created 10-15 pounds of water retention!!!!!!!!! Her fibrinogen level was also critically low along with vitamin K- so bleeding out was also a fear.
I was alone during this time, my mom had taken weeks off work so I could be at her bedside. During a time when it appeared she was improving- and she was having a second transfusion.... I noted to the nurses that she was "twitching" and had not done this before (petite mal) the third transfusion she went into a full blown grand mal seizure that lasted 10 minutes and recessed into a petite mal. The nurse that had been in the room ran out to get help. I was left with instruction to keep her upright. SO of course I did, however she was not breathing properly and I soon realised she was turning blue and was able to catch her own breath less and less. I somehow reached for the oxygen, turned it on, and applied it. this helped her somewhat, and eventually the nurses came in, along with a Dr. they sent me to the front of her and asked me what was happening with her face- a position I would not wish upon any mother. It will forever be ingrained in my mind.
As my baby started to relax into smaller movements I was able to feel my heart in my mouth and the tears in my eyes, I was shaking with exhaustive terror in what I had just seen, knowing I must be strong for her and not let her sense my fear in what I had ust witnessed I left the room after being assured she would be okay. I ran to the elevator and down 3 floors ran out side to phone my mom and my best friend. I needed them to pray, and I needed to cry and panic to someone who knew how to build me up and yell at me to be strong!
We prayed together and I went back upstairs. As I went round the corner to the wing she was on, two Dr's and a nurse nodded at me and walked toward me. In a slight panic from the looks they had I glanced over to my daughters room- the lights were on- and it was filled with specialists, all I could see, were my baby's toes. Someone was stradled over her pumping an oxygen bag, and all sorts of equiptment was in there. I, in shock, did not really hear or understand anything. Life went tunnel vision to her sweet little toes. I followed them to ICU. Apparently, she stopped breathing and a code blue had been called. She was not breathing on her own anymore. The had to hook her up to breathing apparatus.... I could follow but was not aloud in for 1/2 hour because they had to prep her and it would be to much for me to stay and see. (I don't think they knew the depth of my strength- but I knew the policy stood)
trembling I stood outside the ICU doors and cried to God to save my dying baby. Again I ran outside and called my family and I said "I don't care its after 10pm you simply MUST start a prayer chain- my baby is dying and God is the only person who can save her" Prayers started. My tears flowed as I called a few different people. I eventually stopped- I knew I had to face the challenge of this- I had to accept God knew beginning from end and would do the best for my princess- according to his will. During my stay here- I realised I could not control, but I could give the control to one who could. I literally gave my prayed for baby back to God. It was the hardest thing I have ever done.
As I went back to ICU. I went in, scrubbed and went to the room. I peered hesitantly into the room and she was sprawled sideways on a bed that had blood all over it, she was not attached to anything. I felt the tears whell up inside. I thought my baby was dead.
A voice was calling me, "excuse me are you the mum" it said in a British Accent. "Yes, I mumbled- please tell me what happened"
To which she replied " We don't know exactly what happened. We were getting her preped and the tubes were inplace, when suddenly she coughed, and stablized all on her own. We've Never seen anything like it"
To my pure estatic overjoyed heart I got the opportunity to say
" I do- God answered some heart felt prayers"

The anniverary to this date is March 21. Today, although they expected her to die, and then expected serious brain damage. She is running around with out any knowledge or any repercussion to what happened the day God saved her. She is a very special answered prayer.

  In the last week of January 2006, which was a fairly normal day (oh I forgot to mention I live in a serious crime area as well). It’s a normal afternoon, my good friend and fellow employee is giving me and two other employees a ride to our homes (to the most convenient point for her of course). However that day which really did not seem unusual, one of the guys wanted to pay a bill so we waited on him and then she (the one giving us the ride) decided she would not pass around the Savannah (which is nearer for me) but would pass another area to deliver a bill to one of our customers which was cool by me, it’s a slightly longer walk to my home but as I say exercise is always good.

I of course by God’s grace arrived home safely. It was not until the next morning that my dad told me I missed a serious gun war, with two men and their automatic weapons firing while walking towards the guys they wished to kill and these guys were sitting a couple houses away from where the gunmen emerged. Now this is a portion of the road I need to pass in order to get to my home, I missed being shot several times in the back and head by a few minutes. I probably would not be alive today if my Saviour was not “watching my back.”

----------
I know I’ve said a whole lot but these are just a few miracles God has done in my life. The thing is miracles happen in our lives every day and we don’t even realise it. Even though it was requested that we state a testimony other than have air to breathe, or sun, or rain, I have to say it is a miracle that I can breathe air, or feel the sun or the rain and for that I am grateful because my God has never failed me, I might fail but He can never fail. I could be dead but because Jesus paid the price for me already, I am alive.

Some folks have the perception that miracles have to be something spectacular like seeing Angels or, dying but for some reason the life came back to the body. If this happened for you, God’s blessings be upon you but if not, any testimony of how precious God is to you can be your miracle because He turned your life around. Believe me, a miracle can simply be someone handing you an apple when you thought you would have nothing at all to eat for lunch. It’s all about how precious that little gift (miracle) from God is to you that makes it your testimony.
