I would like to share my miracle story with others to help inspire them and give them hope it’s a way of me paying forward. My name is Carina Imbrogno and I was born in 1974 in Buenos Aires, Argentina to Italian immigrants. I was born with a rare genetic disorder called Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome kyphoscoliosis type, but it was not diagnosed until 2015. This illness caused me to have severe...

Christmas Cookies

By Kay Heitsch on December 11, 2019 / 1,306 views

My Mom came from a family of 14 children. Christmastime wasn't always the best. However, there was a man, who went out of his way, to make the day special. Over the years my Mom talked about how this man would come out on Christmas and bring candy to her and her brothers and sisters. Mom never forgot his kindness. I believe because of the kindness shown to her at Christmastime Mom made it a...

Bad Weather

By Joseph J. Mazzella on December 10, 2019 / 949 views

It was late November. The trees that had been covered with lovely leaves just a few weeks earlier were now stark, skinny sticks trying to ride out the Winter to come. The sun had become scarce as the dark nights lengthened, but today it was totally gone. Gray, gloomy clouds covered the sky, a cold wind blew, and a chilly rain was falling steadily. I was driving slowly behind a tractor trailer that was throwing...

A Spirited Aunt

By Terri D Rimmer on December 08, 2019 / 1,041 views

My Aunt Kay passed away this week after a long illness. I'd known her since I was eight. She was my step dad's sister, his last living sibling. She used to take me to church with her and have me spend the night at her house often when I was between ages 12 to14. She was a great cook, baker, funny, vivacious, and spiritual woman with a wonderful heart, a terrific redhead who I would like to remember the...

A Dollar Short

It was a late night and my mom and I were driving home when we passed by a convenience store where she spotted an elotero (the corn man) as we drove back around we stopped him so that we could buy corn. I knew I had a $20 in my wallet so my mom and I each got a corn and got some chips to take to my nephew at home. But as soon as I opened up the bill, I realized it was actually a $5 bill and the...

Spirit Of Love

By Kay Heitsch on December 04, 2019 / 994 views

When Christmas rolls around each year not everyone is happy. It can be a time of high anxiety, sadness, and depression. I know because this is what this season of the year was like for me for many years. It would be easy to allow myself to slip back into that state of mind. However, over the years I've chosen to ask the Lord to fill me with His Spirit of LOVE. I also ask for His strength to do...

People asked me how do I prepare my self in the future, parents say "Do your best at school so you can have a brighter future", grandparents say "Focus on your goals, try to get the best job you can ever get, your life depends on your decisions", friends say "Have fun and Enjoy! you can never experience fun when you grow up", but I say "I will focus on today, at this very...

Be Kind Anyway

By Kay Heitsch on December 02, 2019 / 1,206 views

For many years I was treated in a very unkind way. I was not only talked about behind my back but I was spoken to in an unkind manner to my face. I'm sure a lot of people can relate to this. There came a time when I had the opportunity to help this person out. For some reason, much to my surprise, I chose to be kind and help. My action to show love and help not only surprised me, but it...

Then the till operator said I was free to with my stuff, the person behind me had paid my...

Flying home on Southwest Airlines tonight and the flight attendant announced a young girl was celebrating her 8th birthday. They asked all the rows to push the call lights and we all sang Happy Birthday. Then asked her to make a wish and on the count of 3 blow out the "candle lights" and we all turned them off at the same time. Love their creativity and attention to...

I Love When My Cat Meows

By A Friend on November 21, 2019 / 956 views

He meows a lot to communicate with me. He'd randomly walk into my room, greet me, then lay down right next to my desk and sleep. Now he slept there the past few hours and I got the urge to pet him... when I did he let out a cute soft meow, he didn't even bother opening his eyes. This small little thing made me feel so much better. It may sound stupid but I felt less alone? Haven't been doing great...

I had a really tough childhood. I was abused physically, mentally, and sexually. I never stayed at any school more than a few months and i had a major brain surgery what resulted in an infection that permanently effected my memory in the short term area.

I Finally Sang With My Husband In The Car And Now We're Both Crying

By A Friend on November 18, 2019 / 1,073 views

I love singing, I always have, but I was teased for being a woman with a really deep voice. I wasn't allowed in choir as a kid and never sang with anyone near by. I sing in the car if I'm alone and when I'm home alone, my husband knows this, but I've never felt comfortable before. He's always wanted to hear me sing. Today we were driving and it's beautiful out. I got a bit...

The Peaceful God

By Ndivhuwo Madzivhandila on November 18, 2019 / 1,116 views

Some time ago I slept peacefully, until I had a dream of darkness telling me that I will never ever succeed in life, but the powerful voice of God came out through me responding.. "whatever words you saying is because you are of darkness and there's no christ within you". The darkness just got lost and I had to woke up and came to my senses telling myself that was not my voice but God's voice...
