Miracle 149: His Mercy in the Small Details

This lovely miracle is from a woman living in Thailand who served a 18 month mission for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints at Temple Square in Utah.


So the miracle that happened to me that help me know that God is in every detail of our life is when I came back from my mission. When I was on a mission everything was great, then when I got home, my mom was very sick and need to have a big surgery. In this hard time that my family facing this I felt good that God didn't let it happened while I'm on a mission, but he wait until I came back so I get to take care my mom. So while we have this trial in our family, we grateful for His mercy in the small detail that he had made. I know that He live and always chose the best thing for us even through there is some different then we expect but we just have to learn and accept His will. And, through it all, my mom is healthy and well!

Miracle 148: Earthquakes in Spain

This incredible miracle is from a young woman living in Spain!


I've seen God's hand in my life so many times, one of them was 3 years ago. There was a very intense earthquake in my city over here in Spain. It was a horrible experience, everyone was just so scared and we had to sleep in the car in the middle of nowhere for two days, cause we had to wait for the firefighters to check out our houses and tell us there was no danger to come back. There were also little earthquakes due to the big one we had before so everyone was just so nervous and anxious... So my family and me decided to kneel down and pray for comfort...we felt peace, we felt that everything was gonna be okay. It was a feeling that I'll never forget. Two days after we were able to go home, the firefighters told us that our home was okay, and we felt so grateful that we prayed again to Heavenly Father to thank him for His protection. I know God is aware of us and as we are obedient and turn to him He will protect us and gives us the peace He can only give.

Miracle 147: Sickly to Service

This wonderful miracle comes from a faithful missionary who had to fight in order to serve her fellow man. What would you be willing to fight for?


I have witnessed so many miracles. Especially on my mission. The miracle that stands out to me is the reason WHY I am serving a mission. A year before my mission, I became sick and the doctors were not sure what it was, although they suspected that it wasn't good at all. During the trial of uncertainty and illness and medical tests, I became worried that this would keep me from serving a mission. (Which I had always wanted to do) I received a blessing telling me that no matter what the illness was, I would still be able to serve a mission and that this experience would help me help others come closer to Christ.
All through that time of worry, something ran through my mind, asking me a simple question: "would you want to do this again?" This question repeated over and over for several days, with the same answer I would give:"NO!" Again, the Spirit asked this until one day it finally clicked. The simple question came differently saying: "Would you do this again FOR THEM?" Immediately, I found my heart already know who"they" were. I felt something inside me that seemed to be crying out "Yes! In a heart beat! Even just to help one soul!" In an instant I felt love and the Spirit come over me. Love for complete strangers I have never met. People I would meet someday, and people who I could share my experience with. Because of this miracle, I have a small understanding of what Christ has done for me. I know that Jesus Christ suffered and died for us. And He would do it over again. Even just for one. I know He would suffer all over again just to say "I know how you feel." I know this. And because I know this, I will share it. Jesus is the Christ. ‪

Miracle 145: Prego!

This perfect miracle is from a California girl. Enjoy!


When I was a little girl (it was just me and my younger brother) I was the only girl in the family, as in extended family as well, and I would pray every night for a sister and one night I had a dream that my mom was gonna have a baby, a girl, and I told my parents and sure enough a little after they found out they were prego!!! And later on we found out that it was a girl! I was so happy and truly felt this new baby girl was an answer to my prayers and no I get to live with and love one of the greatest blessings in my life, my sister.

Miracle 144: A Living Breathing Miracle

This miracle is one from my own family when we were living in Dallas, Texas!


Fifteen years ago my beautiful little sister was born. The first night she spent at home she struggled breathing, so my parents rushed her to the hospital. She spent several weeks in the hospital and underwent many surgeries. She received a priesthood blessing from my dad and was placed on an ECMO machine. The machine had tubes that went in through her neck and down to her heart to circulate the blood. The doctors told my parents that she had a 13% chance of living and that she would likely have brain damage, hearing loss, and other side effects. During this time all of our extended family lived far away, but we were united in prayer and fasting for her.

After many weeks of prayers and through the grace of God, she began to recover and was finally released from the hospital. She not only lived, but years later she is still a beautiful, spunky, and happy young woman. To this day she hasn't suffered from any of the side effects that the doctors had predicted. She is a living breathing miracle and I'm grateful to be sealed to her and my family forever!

Though this time in my family's life brought great hardship, we found peace and hope in our Heavenly Father's plan. No matter what happened, we knew this life was not the end and that everything would be all right. She is our families living, breathing miracle!

Miracle 143: Happy Easter!

This darling and simple miracle is from my own cute mom! Hope you love it. I remember that Easter SO vividly.


I had let the bunnies out in the backyard while I was planting flowers and Skipper ran away. We looked everywhere Saturday and we found no sign of her. We were all so sad and I felt terrible for not having watched the bunnies better. We prayed and prayed she would come home. The next day was Easter Sunday and we prayed again. After Daddy prayed, he got the idea to open the back gate so she could hop back in...so we did. While we were eating lunch Daddy was the first to see Skipper hopping in the yard. We all jumped up and ran outside. Our own Easter miracle had come about. Our prayers had been answered--Skipper was safe! Now since we don’t know where she was in all the green hills near our house, we like to think she had a date with the Easter bunny! Our family had had a High Five experience and because it happened on such a special day, our family will remember it always. Our family believes in miracles, especially the greatest one of all the resurrection of our Savior, Jesus Christ!

Miracle 142: Satan Was Trying His Hardest

This miracle is from a fellow missionary who served in Jacksonville, Florida with us!


We were on our way to see a woman was just down and out with no hope at all. She was grieving about how her mom was in the hospital not doing well and recently got into a fight with her daughter. So we asked if she wanted a blessing and she said yes, but during the blessing things started taking place the phone kept going off, and near the end of the blessing someone was at the door and me personally I thought Satan was trying his hardest to stop us. But when it was done she opened the door to find a return missionary stopping by in visiting her and in a way strengthening her. After that she answered the phone to receive welcoming news that her mother was going to be fine and would be able to come home soon. I remember when she told us that she was grateful to have us and that we made a difference in her life.

On that following Sunday she bore her testimony to everyone for the first time in that meeting and it was incredible to be there on that day. I will never forget that experience and I know for the most part this was all according to my faith. Ether 12:12 I know that wherever we go in the areas that we have been to God has a purpose for us being there no matter what it may be for the most part it's to meet someone that will impact our lives.

Miracle 141: The Power of Tithing

This perfect tithing miracle is from a newlywed wife living with her husband in Virginia!


My husband and I had a really big miracle happen about a year and a half ago. My husband entered the Navy and in December of 2012 we recieved his first set of orders to move to Norfolk, VA. We had saved up a lot of our money preparing for a big move. Now the military will reimburse you for the move but only after the proper paperwork has been filed. We moved about a month sooner then I was prepared for and being 4 months pregnant surely didn't help. But while my husband was in basic my relationship with Heavenly Father had grown significantly. When we moved out there we lived in a hotel and had to eat out for every meal unto we could find an apartment. Which we were able to for a great price, but a lot of our savings was depleted. My husband filed the paperwork but week after week we never heard anything. As we were buying the last of our soon to be born babies necessities I realized we only had $300 in our bank account left. I prayed to Heavenly Father knowing that if we paid our tithing we would have so much less. But I felt the spirit so strongly and knew paying our tithing was what we needed to do. So we did. Three months after we had moved I logged into our bank account and the military had finally reimbursed us! It was more then we were expecting but it certainly was enough to no longer stress about money. I know that Heavenly Father was looking out for us and by doing the right thing we were blessed so significantly! I constantly keep that memory close whenever I start to waiver on tithing and know good will always come from it!

Miracle 140: "Now I am here, in Zhenjiang, China"

This powerful miracle is from a dear high school friend of mine who is currently living in China! God really does answer prayers in His perfect timing.


About a year ago, in October of 2013, I was struggling. I'm a college student at BYU, and I had no idea what I should do with my life. So many options lay before me, but every path seemed to twist out of sight, and I could not tell which decision was the best for me. I longed, more than anything, to serve in some way, and yet all the possible routes and options didn't seem to work. Some were too expensive, others didn't feel right. Staying at school didn't seem to fit, either, and going home didn't feel okay. I was stuck. In a serious way.

I remember that time very clearly, and I can honestly say that there wasn't a single night for about six months in which I did not cry myself to sleep every night. Hours were spent on my knees in fervent prayer, asking God what I should do with my life, asking that the pain be taken away. You can imagine how frustrating and hurtful it was when sometimes the pain wasn't taken away. Finally, one day, I received an answer to my dilemma. "There is an option that you have not considered yet." So, patiently, I waited for that option to present itself. I kept myself busy with school, with work, with friends, and with travel. And I forgot about this answer.

Exactly one year later, I found myself thoughtlessly applying for a volunteer program not expecting to be accepted. However, not long after applying, and email soon arrived that informed me that I'd been accepted to teach English to kindergarteners in China, and I would be leaving February 1. That night, as I knelt to pray, I was reminded of that answer that I had received exactly a year ago, and I felt a sweet whisper and reminder that this was the option I had waited for. Now I am here, in Zhenjiang, China. I wake up every morning and greet children from ages 2-7 as they walk through the gate. I watch as their eyes widen when they realize that the world is bigger than they thought, and that they could have it all, if they wanted. They smile at me and tell me shyly that they love me. Every day is hard, some days I feel as if I want to tear my hair out. But their angel smiles remind me every day that there is so much joy to be found, when we find the courage to believe in God.

Miracle 138: Heimlich of Champions

This miracle comes from a young man with a cute family here in Florida.


One day I was baby sitting my younger cousins with my sister. We gave them life savers to suck on, and my one little cousin, began to choke. It became very obvious that it was lodged in her throat, and her face began to change color. At nine years old, I hadn't had any kind of training for this type of event. However, through the grace of God, I knew what to do and I started the Heimlich maneuver. After a few attempts, she threw up the life saver and was just fine. Her life was saved due to this miracle from God!
Feliz día de!

Miracle 137: A Powerful Priesthood Blessing

This miracle is from a missionary in Texas! We love how powerful God's hand truly is. 


While tracting one day, we received a phone call from a very distressed member of our ward asking us to come over immediately. As we arrived, we were confronted with an extremely upset family and a woman that we had never seen before, who was on the edge of hysteria. The family explained to us that this woman, whom was a close family friend of theirs, was in need of a priesthood blessing, for a problem that she was having with her eye. Roughly 5 years previously, this woman had a strange thing happen to her left eye in which, from what I understood, a blood vessel had ruptured and blood had started entering her eye. She went to a doctor to see what could be done and was informed that there were no current procedures that would be able to help. Within 3 days she had lost sight in her left eye completely, and remained blind in her left eye. Now the same thing had happened in her right eye, with blood descending out of nowhere to cloud this sister's vision. She, having learned from her previous mistake, went immediately to the doctor who gave her the same unfortunate news.. there was nothing to be done.. and she would most likely lose the vision in her remaining eye due to complications. And that is why we were called, she told us bluntly, she needed a miracle. We prayed as a companionship, and then explained to this sister what a blessing entails, explaining that if she had sufficient faith, and it was the will of God, she would be healed. We then laid our hands on her head and pronounced a blessing. While my companion was giving the blessing, she began to sob and tremble.. When the blessing was complete, she stood up from her chair and started to praise the Lord. She explained that the exact moment in which she had been commanded to be healed in the blessing, she felt the blood leave her eye. She was indeed made whole that day. The doctors had no explanation for how this happened, none that they could understand or scientifically prove, but we know that it was the Lord acting through His priesthood here on Earth that changed the life of this woman, the family, and the young missionaries that were able to witness this great miracle. Through faith and proper authority, all things may be accomplished. I'm grateful that I had the opportunity to witness such a miracle in my life, and even more so to play a role in it.

Miracle 136: Inspired to Lift the Passenger Seat!

This beautiful miracle is from AUSTRALIA =) Love it. We've touched a new continent.


My miracle happened quite some time ago, but I will keep it brief, basically our family was on holiday and I was travelling in central Australia from Alice Springs back to Curtin Springs Station where the other half of the family were, and the vehicle I was driving was a van, and the fan belt broke, so I was driving over an hour out of Alice with heat coming off of the engine from under my seat. I noticed the thermometer almost on the red and knew that something was wrong. I had been to Alice for the weekend just left morning after Sacrament meeting, and had my girls with me as we were heading out on a 400 kilometer journey, The youngest was a baby, and the oldest was about 7. I stopped to see if I could see what the cause of the heat was and at this point I didn't know that the fan belt had broken. Each time the motor cooled down a little I would drive about 1 kilometer and the temp was up again, so after doing this about 3 times, and asking for help from passers by to call my husband 300 kilometers away when they got reception on there mobile phones, I decided to ask Heavenly Father for help, and both my oldest daughter and myself were inspired at the same time to drive with the front passenger seat lifted up in the van while I drove, this is done when the mechanics repair the motor anyway this created the ventilation that the motor needed to cool down and for me to drive to Erldunda turn off, With still another 200 kilometers to travel, I waited there as it was safer than driving till it got dark and sitting on the side of the road with no power, or lights for oncoming traffic to find us, Heavenly Father knows best.

Miracle 135: Life's Full Of Miracles!

This lovely miracle is from a beautiful mother of 3 living in Florida.


As I've thought about which miracle I would share today I couldn't decide on just one. So here are several I see as miracles in my life. 1st of all I'm thankful that when I was 2 years old my parents decided to move to Union County (my dad's hometown) to raise their family. I have been so blessed by growing up in this small town. Without being here I wouldn't have met my 1st miracle... my husband who I love so much and can't imagine my life without! He has given me three more miracles... my children. I didn't quite appreciate what miracles the 1st two were until faced with lots of heartbreak trying for the 3rd... Lastly, I'm thankful for the miracle of being accepted to The University of Florida where I earned my BSN which gives me the opportunity to witness the greatest miracle of life ...little miracles born everyday I work! None of this would be possible without the miracle of the birth of our Savior Jesus Christ, the miracle of His death and the miracle of his resurrection which gives us all the chance to return to live with him again one day!!!

Miracle 134: A Miracle from India!

This beautiful miracle is from a missionary for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in INDIA! Miracles are happening all around the world. 



This past Saturday and Sunday has been one big miracle. This Saturday, we again visited a brother's home. On the phone, he said you can come, but my wife is not interested. So we went. When we got there, I felt right at home. Their home is very western and modern. Additionally, they were in that "Saturday afternoon" mode- This brother was still in his pajama bottoms watching "Get Smart" while eating his late lunch that his wife prepared- Mutton Curry (but it was Kerela style because that's where their family is from. Kerala food means nice coconut flavors.) His children were running around playing and I played snakes and ladders for 10 minutes while he was finishing. Then, we started talking with him and his wife, and naturally the discussion led to the Restoration of the Gospel and the Plan of Salvation. We were there for about two and half hours reading from the Bible and Book of Mormon with him and answering the different questions they had. By the end of it, his wife, agreed to come to church with the full family! I don't know how her heart softened in two and half hours, but it truly did. When we first met her last week, she was pretty stiff, but by the end of Saturday, she was laughing and smiling with us! And yesterday, they all came with their three children! And it turned out the church members they sat next to were the children's classmates. And another family from our branch are from the same part of Kerala as their family! Needless to say, they had a wonderful Sunday and the branch members were all very happy and welcoming to them. These are the moments when you feel like everything is worth it. I can't help but give gratitude to Heavenly Father for allowing me to be an instrument in His hands. And we are looking forward to continue teaching their family and help them prepare to become an eternal family!

Miracle 132: Horses for Sale!

This darling miracle all about horses is from a cute woman living in Georgia!


My sweet little daughter has so much faith in the Lord. She LOVES horses! We are blessed to live on a farm with acreage, but we do not have a horse, nor can we really afford to buy one, but my daughter believes that if we ask, we shall receive. She has been praying for a horse for years. She has looked up sites on the internet for free horses. The other day we were in a feed store buying feed for our goats. My daughter was looking at some horse saddles and the owner of the store came over and asked if we had a horse, or if we needed a horse. It turns out that he is leaving the state and he has 8 horses that he is trying to find homes for. He said he would give one of his horses to us for a good price - FREE. Yesterday, my daughter's faith-filled prayers and desires were answered - there is a beautiful horse grazing out in our pasture right now, and it is all hers!
