Innocent faith in "miracles"...... ( a wonderful true story ❤ )

[Queen Esther]

Innocent faith in "miracles"......

 Tess was an early 8 year old when she heard her mom and dad talk about her little brother Andrew. All she knew was that he was very sick and they were complete without money. They were going to an apartment next month because Papa did not have the money for the doctor's calculations and her house.
Only a very costly operation could save him now, and he was looking for someone to lend them the money. She heard Papa whisper to the weeping, despairing mother, "Only a miracle can save him now."

Tess went to her bedroom and pulled a jar of jar from her hiding place by the closet. She poured all that she had saved on the floor and counted it carefully. 3 times. The total sum was accurate. No chance for mistakes. Carefully she put the coins back into the glass and turned the lid closed. She slipped through the back door and made her way to Rexall Drug Store with the big red sign, with the Indian Chief, over the door.

She patiently waited for the pharmacist to give her some attention, but he was too busy at that moment. Tess twists her feet to make a screeching sound. Nothing. She cleared her throat with the most disgusting noise she could muster. Nothing.
Finally she took a quarter out of her glass and slammed it on the glass. That worked !  ;-)

The pharmacists asked in an annoyed tone: "And what do you want? I have here my brother from Chicago, whom I have not seen and spoken for a long time," he said without waiting for an answer to his question......

"Well,  I want to talk to you about my brother," Tess said, in the same disgruntled tone. "He's really very, very sick ...   and  I want to buy a miracle."

"Excuse me, what do you want?" Said the pharmacist.

"His name is Andrew, and he has something bad, it grows in his head, and my dad says that only a miracle can save him now, so how much does a miracle cost?"

"We're not selling miracles, little girl, I'm sorry, but I can not help you," said the pharmacist, already a little gentler.

"Listen, I have the money for it, if it's not enough, I'll get the rest together, tell me how much it costs."

The pharmacist's brother was a well-dressed man. He bent down and asked the little girl, "What miracle does your brother need?"

"I do not know," Tess said, raising her eyes. "I only know he's really sick and Mama says he needs surgery, but my dad can not pay, so I want to use my money."

"How much do you have?" The Chicago man asked. "One dollar and eleven cents,"  Tess barely heard.  "It's all money  I've,  but  I can get more if I have to.

"Well, what a coincidence," the man smiled. "One dollar and eleven cents - that's the exact price of a miracle for little brothers." He took her money in his hand, and with the other hand he took her hand and said, "Take me with you, I want to see your brother and your parents, let's see if I have the kind of miracles you need."

The well-dressed man was Dr. Carlton Armstrong, a surgeon specializing in neuro-surgery.  The operation was completed successfully,  and it was not long before Andrew was back home. Mom and Dad were happy and talked about the chain of events that had brought them here.
"The operation," whispered her mother, "was a real miracle. I wonder how much it would have cost?"

Tess smiled. She knew exactly how much a miracle cost ...   one dollar and eleven cents ...    plus the faith of a small child.

It is claimed that this is a true story. (Author unknown)

Are miracles happening ...
The sick world in which we must be today must drastically enter the "surgery." Through His Word, the Bible, Jehovah has promised God that He will restore Paradise on this earth. (2 Peter 3:13)

But for this to happen, wickedness will have to be removed, completely cut off. (Psalm 37: 9-11, Proverbs 2:21, 22)

All the sad things that we see around us have to be eradicated before a paradise can be restored. It will literally be a miracle - Revelation 21: 4, 5.

Jehovah's Witnesses believe these massive changes will come soon. Why? The miracles already performed by Jehovah God prove that he has the strength to fulfill his promises. Compare only six of the miracles recorded in the Bible, with the promise to make it for the future.

(James 2:26) 26   Yes, as the body without spirit is dead, faith without works is dead.

The little girl literally acted in accordance with her belief,  that her little brother was cured by "miracles" ❤
