CHRISTMAS A TIME FOR MIRACLES?

What makes something a miracle ?

the chronically ill becoming completely healthy again ?

water changing to wine ?

winning the lottery ? 

or is a miracle more about something much more tangible ? 

The Single parent that has enough time to notice the subtle changes in her child when something is troubling them even when they have a full time job, other children to look after a stack of washing and ironing to do , a dinner to cook and the endless housework and homework to complete... that is a miracle to me 

(especially when there are people with 1 child no job who fail to pick up on a child showing the same signs of  distress)  

The friend that turns up or calls at just the right time or even sends a text or facebook message when the world seems devoid of people, that I believe is also a miracle.

I am not the type of person to ever preach about my beliefs be it religious, political or social but today I believe I witnessed and was the center point of my very own miracle! 

 I will not delve too deeply into the details but I will say 

Be careful and kind always as you never know when an angel has walked into your life
