Christmas Miracles: Magical True Stories of Modern-Day Miracles

In the library this was found in the religious section. If these stories are true and I see no reason to believe they are not, it definitely says something about the power of miracles at Christmas. In the first story there's a loaves and fishes kind of occurrence when a Santa Claus has far more poor children than toys to give them, but somehow everybody gets one.

In another, a woman's deceased grandmother provides for her during her hardest Christmas the only way the old woman knew how, a 5 pound package of bologna appears in her grocery sack just when she's going to starve through the Christmas week.

One that stuck out for me was a story from Christmas 1927 when a family has absolutely nothing for their children, and the mailman pays them a 3 A.M. visit with 10 crates of food, toys, clothes and blankets.

Another that really makes you wonder about angels walking among us or about the saying to turn no one away at Christmas Eve for it might be Christ Himself, involves a family who gets paid a visit from a complete stranger, who disappears as mysteriously as he appears.


Overall it's a very good book and every chapter of a Christmas miracle, there's definitely no overestimation of that word being used here. Has anybody read this one?
