Miracles Do Happen - Skye Thomas 

Have you ever had an overwhelming problem or issue? Was there some circumstance in your life that seemed beyond your ability to handle it? Have you ever called out to God, guardian angels, The Force, your higher self, Mother Earth, whatever name you give that spirit?

To find an all-encompassing name without prejudice towards any one-belief system, I will just here by use the word ‘god’ to refer to whatever or whoever it is that you pray to for assistance and guidance. Have you cried out to your god for help and guidance with some crisis in your life? Did you get an answer? Did you get help? When we get the help and assistance we have just asked for, we assume all is well in the heavens. We think, "Wahoo! Miracles really do happen!" However, when we don’t get the answer or the help we were looking for, we often conclude that there is no god or that we’ve fallen out of favor. We seem to have mixed up our traditional beliefs stating that we have to jump through hoops and beg for our gods to favor us and the new age concepts that we can simply visualize anything we want into manifesting.
