Miracle

 

On a sunny Saturday morning filled with gratitude she got up, opened the window and said hello to the world.

After getting all prepped up for the long day, she brewed a cup of coffee and headed out to her mom´s – about a 20-minute drive.

Feeling good about the coming events, she chatted and smiled and enjoyed her day.

Around 4pm, exhausted from driving to a restaurant, a theater, and drugstores, she drove home.

When she opened her kitchen door, she noticed something strange, she had forgotten the stove burner on. She needed to sit down, all the negative things that could´ve happened filled her mind making her a bit dizzy. She had left home at 9am and only returned 7 hours later. A true miracle. The pan on top of the burner did not burn (this pan usually burns after a few minutes on the burner every morning); the wind did not blow out the burner leading to a gas leak; the home could have caught on fire; so many things could´ve happened.

Gratitude filled her heart and she prayed giving thanks for the miracle.
