Have you read CHRISTMAS MIRACLES? It’s a collection of 48 inspirational true stories that will warm your heart and strengthen your faith as you watch miracles unfold, and witness how hurting people were helped in a time of dire need. Exceptional authors Cecil Murphey and Marley Gibson put out a call and collected these enlightened and profound stories from ordinary people who have experienced miracles and have opened their lives to readers so they can share their Christmas experiences. And besides gathering and editing, Cecil Murphey and Marley Gibson added their own illumined stories to the collection that had me thanking God that we are never alone in this world. These stories touch different walks of life and show us that God is everywhere and always watching over us.Sometimes miracles are medically unexplainable and sometimes family and friends or strangers are used to complete them. However they are worked, the stories opened my heart to reach for a higher understanding than what lies right before my eyes. Through these stories I felt part of a bigger whole. CHRISTMAS MIRACLES, a St. Martin's Press publication, brings hope and light and life to the darkest times of our lives. We have to make it through each day in this world and handle the good with the bad. What a joy it is to know that hope lives during our times of trial, and when we are experiencing difficulties that are dragging us down. How good it is to know there are angels walking among us and that God is always with us. At the end of CHRISTMAS MIRACLES you will find a bio of all the short story’s authors.
