A miracle happened this morning

A miracle happened this morning. I somehow didn't wake up at 5.30 a.m. when my alarm went off - probably too tired and sleepy. Suddenly woke up at 5.50 a.m. – a whole 20 minutes later - and rushed through all my work, including making chapathis for breakfast, watering my plants and of course, breaking the bun into pieces for my senior 4-legged friend.

On my walk to the nearest bus stop (nearly 30 mins. from home), I kept praying and said “Jesus, I count on you and I depend on you only, today also as always. I slept beyond time I know, but did all the work as per my duty, now I don't want to get late. Only you can help me.”

 After some time, Srinivas (not his real name), a guy from my apartments stopped by me, and asked me, “Do you want me to drop you somewhere madam?” I said “Yes, yes, I am late” and got onto his bike. He had dropped me quite a distance on the first day we shifted to my new workplace, but after that I had not met him at all. Probably he started late from home, while I would have already reached the road and got into my bus.

I was really touched the way God helped me so instantly, as though He was right next to me and heard me say my prayer to Him.

I shared my thoughts with Srinivas and said thanks for helping me when I was so desperately in need. I told him I believed in praying and he really helped today.

He immediately responded saying that it was not he who helped me, but my prayers that helped me.
Couldn’t help being impressed by his humility.

May his tribe keep increasing. Let’s pray without ceasing.

Life is full of miracles :)
