This was a good book to read the day of the earthquake in Salt Lake City because it is very short chapters. When you are lacking focus, it is easier to digest just a few pages at a time.

[Sandra Strange · Rating 4 out of 5]

These stories inspire us all to look closely at our lives and recognize the "everyday miracles" all around us. From the miraculous experiences when lives are saved to the times when people are miraculously in the right place at the right time, these are fun and comforting for us to read about. Of course, some could be dismissed as "coincidence," but the numbers defy that explanation. For those of hope or faith, these stories can be just what we need for a daily dose of encouragement.

These are stories of true miracles that have happened in the lives of members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. Some are life saving, some are reminders of God's love for us and some are consequences of faith and need. It was a very uplifting and beautiful book.

I had started this book forever ago and don't remember why I didn't finish it then. But, I picked it out of my nightstand drawer and finished the other night. There are about 100 stories from various authors telling of a time when they felt the hand of God in their life. Each story stands alone from the other. An uplifting and inspiring book. Worth reading and referencing.

I have read several of these stories to my children each day. We all really enjoyed reading the beautiful miracles in LDS people's lives.

What some people call luck is truly a miracle in our every day lives.
