~ The Cost Of A Miracle ~

 A little girl went to her bedroom
And pulled a glass jelly jar
From its hiding place in the closet
She poured the small change out on the floor
And counted it carefully
Three times she counted it
The total had to be exactly perfect
There was no chance here for mistakes
Carefully placing the coins back in the jar
And twisted the cap on tight
 
 
She then slipped out the back door
Then made her way down 6 blocks to Rexall's drug store
With the big red Indian Chief sign above the door
She went in and waited patiently
For the pharmacist to give her some attention

But he was busy at this moment

Tess twisted her feet to make a scuffing noise

But nothing

She then cleared her throat

With the most disgusting sounds she could muster

Still not response

Finally she took a quarter out of her jar

And banged it on the counter

That did it

What do you want?

The pharmacist asked in an annoyed tone of voice

I am talking to my brother from Chicargo

Whom I haven't seen in ages

He said without waiting for a reply to his question

Well I want to talk to you about my brother

Tess answered back in the same annoyed tone

He's really really sick..... and I want to buy a miracle

I beg your pardon said the pharmacist

His name is Andrew said Tess

And he has something bad going on inside his head

And my Daddy says only a miricale can save him

So how much does a miricale cost

 

We don't sell miricales here little girl

I am sorry but I can't help you the the pharmacist said softening a little in his tone

Listen, I have the money to pay for it

If it isn't enough i will get the rest

Just tell me how much it costs

The pharmacists brother was a well dressed man

He stooped down and asked Tess

What kind of miracle does your bother need

I don'r no she said with her eyes filling with tears

I just know he is really sick

And Mommy says he needs an operation

Bur my Daddy can't pay for it

So I want to use my money

How much do you have asked the man from Chicargo

One dollar and eleven cents Tess answered barely audibly

And it is all the money I have

But I can get more if I need too

Well, what a coincidence smiled the man

A dollar and eleven cents is the exact price of a miracle for your little brother

 

He took the money in one hand

And with the other hand he grasped her mitten

And said, Take me to were you live Tess

I want to see your brother and meet your parents

Lets see if I have the miracle you need

That well dressed man

Was Dr. Carlton Armstrong

A surgeon, specializing in Neuro-surgery

The opertation was completed free of charge

And it wasn't long and Andrew was home again doing well

Mom and Dad were happily talking about the chain of events

That had led to the Doctor to their place

That surgery, her mom whisped was a real miracle

I wonder how much it would have cost 

Tess smiled to herself....

She know exactly how much a miracle cost 

One Dollar and eleven cents, plus the faith of a little child

 

 

 

 

In our lives,

We never know how many miracles we will need..

A miracle is not the suspension of natural law

But  the operation of a higher law..

There is still so much good in this world

It is just we never really hear about the good in life

For some reason

We only hear about the Terror and Wars

The destruction humanity is bringing upon itself

Wouldn't it be better to read something like this

Instead of all the devastation that is going on in the world

And in the end we could push out the darkness

That surrounds life today
