I looked down at my tires on my van and I was amazed. I had a good half inch tread left even though I had over sixty thousand miles on my tires. To me I didn't know it was a miracle, but when my son, the mechanic, looked at them, he was astonished.

So many times we take God for granted, we think He doesn't see our needs or understand how hard our life has become. But when we take the time to slow down from our fast paced life we see the miracles.

Walking outside my door, I admired all of the trees in my yard and the trees that decorated my neighbors yards. I began to notice that many of the pine trees were turning brown and dying. A twenty-five foot pine tree stood stately in my front lawn and I was afraid that whatever was killing my neighbors trees would affect my tree as well.

I wasn't sure how to protect my tree and so I consulted an expert. He said it was a disease that was taking all the pine trees in our area. I prayed for God's protection over my tree and the years passed with my tree being unaffected by the death of it's counter parts.

Maybe God singled me out for these miracles or maybe my miracles could be your miracles too. Many of us have stopped praying and asking God for help. Many of us have given up hope because we have stopped looking beyond the problems we are facing at the moment.

Isaiah 65:1, "The Lord said, 'I was ready to answer my people's prayers, but they did not pray. I was ready for them to find me, but they did not even try. The nation did not pray to me, even though I was always ready to answer, Here I am; I will help you.'"

These are just two miracles, but I have many more to share and many that I can't share because I am unaware of God's miracle working plan in my life every day. All I can say for sure is I know God listens to me and reacts when I take the time to let Him know my needs.

For the past three years I have prayed that God would give me good gas mileage and protect me from hitting deer as I traveled back and forth in the early morning each w
