A Miracle a Day: Stories of Heavenly Encounters: A Book of Meditations

by Ann Spangler

A schoolgirl is healed of bulbar polio, a man is miraculously pulled from a burning wreck, a young child finds a lost diamond ring, a woman on the brink of death receives a vision of heaven, an angel takes a young girl on the trip of a lifetime. True stories from Scripture and from the lives of ordinary men and women as well as such notable figures as Catherine Marshall, Briege McKenna, John Newton, Francis of Assisi, and General George Patton open a window into the miraculous that will reassure you that God still loves you and is in control of the universe.
Fifty-five devotions reflect on God's incredible love, exploring such themes as miracles of healing, miracles of deliverance, miracles of prophecy, miracles and angels, the power of prayer, when miracles don't happen, and the significance of dreams and visions. No matter what your need, A Miracle a Day will deepen your faith in the wisdom, kindness, and mercy of an all-powerful God.

Reviews

[Anne Marie · Rating 4 out of 5]

I read this book when I had some quiet time every now and then. The short stories were inspirational, some bible stories, others about present-day people. I liked the short prayers after the stories and bible verses introducing us to a new story. Thoughts: miracles do happen, have faith, and pray, pray, pray.

I don't know I should have liked this one more but I just didn't. Something just seemed off to me.

Excellent devotional with varying viewpoints on angels and angelic encounters.
