Miracles are surprising and somewhat unbelievable, events that defy nature or scientific laws. Therefore, they are considered to be the work of a "Devine Agency". "Pray for a Miracle" is a term that each of us has heard or said at one time or another in our lives. Two times in my life I have prayed for a miracle and two times a miracle has happened. Our family was traveling on vacation through central Oregon. As we approached the summit of a mountain range wilderness area, we spotted a tiny dog running lost and frightened. After hours of trying to rescue him, he disappeared into the wilderness resulting in sadness and tears. Continuing on our 400 mile journey, we reached our destination, had our vacation and returned to our home on the Oregon coast. My thoughts were continuous about the little dog and my heart was troubled. I prayed for a miracle.
