Wonders and Miracles

Welcome back for Season 5 of Wonders and Miracles Podcast. I'm excited to be back sharing miracle stories with you! How often do you undercut the joy of your heart desire or dream in order to guard yourself from potential disappointment? I find myself doing this more often than I'd like. So, today I will share the insight that helped me focus more on the joy in the moments rather than guarding myself from imagined disappointment. Nehemiah 8:10 Then he said unto them, Go your way, eat the fat, and drink the sweet, and send portions unto them for whom nothing is prepared: for this day is holy unto our Lord: Neither be ye sorry; for the joy of the Lord is your strength.

Where and when have you been on a healing journey? Have you seen miracles and God involved in your healing journey? Today is my last episode for Season 4. It's been a great season. I just want to say thank you to all my guests for sharing your miracles with us and I want to thank all you listeners who also love God and love celebrating His presence in your lives. Today I share some of my own miraculous healing experiences and some of the things I was taught about allowing ourselves and others the time and space it takes to work through the healing process. Peace can come in this life even if we have been through some pretty tough stuff. John 14:27 Peace I leave with you, my peace I give unto you: not as the world giveth, give I unto you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid.

Today, I have a husband wife team who have become involved in an organization called Dahlia's hope. Unbeknownst to them at the time, they and their network of friends, were being prepared for this over twenty years ago. A few years ago, Dean and Kristin Coleman felt God moving them in powerful ways to leave the Washington DC area and relocate to the rural town of Rexburg, Idaho. After the move, Kristin experienced a loss of purpose so deep, that she offered a mighty prayer to have a purpose fall in her lap. That purpose came just a week later as she and Dean toured the campus of Dahlia's Hope in Utah. Dahlia's Hope is an organization that provides complete aftercare therapies for sex trafficked human beings to help with restoring hope and healing in their lives. They are not only raising awareness of this amazing organization but working on an upcoming fundraising event to bring a Dahlia's hope to Eastern Idaho. They have committed their lives to joining the fight against the evil business of modern-day slavery, human sex trafficking. Check out below, the upcoming fundraising event and resources to help you get informed and involved.

Today while I was meditating, I asked about what message I should share with you this week. The words Be Still and Know that I am God came into my mind. I've often meditated with this mantra and it's certainly my favorite scripture on meditation but today it felt like a divine message to reflect on what that really means. What does it mean to be still and know that I am God? What can you do to create more stillness in your life? Where have you been still (stopped worrying) and known God was prevailing in your life?

Today, we get to speak with two women who testify of an individual God. A God who reassured Betsey, my first guest, that she had no need to worry about an upcoming bungee jumping event. This experience with a divine message has helped Betsey know that God knows her needs. My next guest, Theresa, shares a touching Mother's Day poem that was spiritually communicated to her from an 8-year-old nonverbal autistic boy in her Sunday School class. She also testifies of a God who knows us and loves us individually with this Mother's Day miracle poem.

Is there value in suffering? “Out of suffering have emerged the strongest souls; the most massive characters are seared with scars.” -Kahlil Gibran What have you learned about yourself through your moments of suffering and struggle?

This is part 2 of last week's episode After the Victory with Alyssa Winslow. Today, we get to speak with DC Winslow, Alyssa's husband, about the deadly car accident he experienced as a missionary. An accident that killed his companion and caused DC a traumatic brain injury. The same brain injury Alyssa's daughter Kaya had from their accident. After the wreck, DC had what he thought was a dream of his companion but now he recognizes that it was an actual near-death experience (NDE) where he was outside of his body getting instructions. There were so many miracles that saved DC's life that day and I'm honored to share them with you. He also shares how Ryan, Alyssa's late husband, was directly involved in helping him find and marry Alyssa.

Today, Alyssa shares the heart felt story of a car accident that killed both her husband, Ryan and her four-year-old daughter, Evee. After impact, Alyssa found herself in a beautifully peaceful bright serenity. She was content to say in this joyful space until she heard the desperate cry, “Mama, mama.” This cry of her six-year-old Kaya, pulled her back to the reality of the wreck and pain. Alyssa shares many miracles that followed this tragic event in her life including the miracle of finding a new love.

Many years ago, God asked me some questions. Question: “How often do you feed your body?” Answer: “At least three times a day.” Question: “How often do you feed your spiritual body?” Answer: “Yikes. Not often enough.” It was as though I saw an emaciated body that was starving for nourishment. My spiritual practice deepened at that time. How much spiritual nourishment do you get? What spiritually feeds you?

Kausha knew she wanted more children but her unhealthy body image and practices were getting in the way of that righteous desire. Luckily, she had an inspired friend who helped her realized her unhealthy habits needed to end. As she talked to her husband about having another baby, he reminded her of the “Disneyland rule.” (They needed to have an even number of children for everyone to have a ride partner at Disneyland) What this meant for Kausha was two more children. While this felt overwhelming to her, she knew that was her commitment. Miraculously God blessed her with twins and even gave her a divine vision that alleviated all her anxiety about this.

What really matters in life? Sometimes when we have a trial or hardship, we learn to refocus on the things that truly matter, like our connections with friends, family and God. What things are you holding onto that don't matter? How can you refocus on things that matter most?

Andi had been praying for her husband for years. On July 13, 2019 their little boy Harrison drowned. Miraculously he survived but after this event, Andi fell into the darkness of guilt and shame. As a mother, she felt she had failed her job of protecting her child from harm. She struggled with the thought of how could she have let this happen? Yet, God has a way of making our pain into something good. Her husband, desiring to help, suggested he start going to church with the family. Listen to hear the miracles that unfolded because of Harrison's drowning.

What is the balance between relying on your own strength and resources vs. relying on God? Do you only rely on God after all you can do? Or should you rely on God first to then strengthen you? Proverbs 3:5-6 Trust in the Lord with all thine heart and lean not unto thine own understanding. In all thy ways acknowledge Him and He shall direct thy paths. What burdens are you carrying on your own right now (relying on your own strength) that you can give to the Lord and let Him help you (relying on God's strength)? How can you invite and include God more in your daily life? What would this look like to involve God in all things?

Today, Allison shares three miracles that occurred while she and Ben (her husband) traveled through Europe as newlyweds. This was before cell phones so prayer was their only resource for help. Listen to hear how asking for the righteous desires of their hearts helped Allison learn the lesson that miracles happen when we rely on God for everything.

Today in the United States we are celebrating Presidents' Day in honor of the great presidents who have helped with freedom in our country. Can we be free even if we have outside restrictions placed on us that are out of our control? What does freedom mean in our personal lives? Sometimes circumstances need to change, sometimes it's the change in your mind and heart that changes everything. “The freedom of the mind is the beginning of all other freedoms”-Clinton Lee Scott.

As a girl growing up, I often heard my parents say, “The Lord will provide.” My parents would share stories and experiences of the Lord providing for our needs and we celebrated them with gratitude. This statement became a part of my belief system. That's a pretty good belief to be conditioned with, if you ask me. For this, I am grateful! Last week on my podcast, Heather said, “If God provides a miracle it's going to be the right size miracle.” I loved this so much and reflected on the times in my life that the Lord has provided for me. He doesn't just provide for our physical needs like money, food or clothes. He also provides for our emotional wellbeing, our health, peace in times of fear or sadness. Where and when in your life have you seen the Lord provide?

Today, Heather was prompted to reach out to me and share three beautiful miracles that her family witnessed after the passing of her 8-month-old grandson Daron. As the clouds of grief hung heavy on their hearts, the comfort of seeing God's hand was a light through the clouds. Heather's stories testify that we can see God's miracles in our time of grief if we watch for them.

Does Fear have a purpose? Have you ever had an experience in your life that created intense fear and pain—so much fear and pain that you weren't sure you could move past it? How did you get through this? Maybe you are still existing in the fear and struggling to move past it. Do you think it's possible that God could help you overcome your fear and pain and move forward with faith and trust?  Have you ever experienced God helping you do that?  1 John 4:18 …perfect love casts out fear… 1 John 4:8 …God is love… So, God helps us cast out our fears.

Today, Kari shares a beautiful testimony of an answered prayer— a prayer to become closer to the Lord. However, she never imagined this prayer would be answered with her first-born baby Kailsie's fatal diagnosis of Spinal Muscular Atrophy. Kari and her husband Brent always wanted six children but after Kailsie's death, she was terrified to have another child. Listen to see how the Lord miraculously helped Kari overcome her fears and trust that Kailsie's life and death was all meant to be and that they would have the beautiful family they always desired.

Today, Julie Schindler shares her beautiful world of color with us. As a child and teenager, she carefully tucked away all her childhood trauma in a trash can of darkness and moved forward into family and career. But after a work accident left her permanently disabled (she lives her life horizontally from her pillow and only has 4 standing hours a day) and after a heart attack awakened her, she started to open up this old dark trash can and paint it with colors of light. After the heart attack, she gained the gift of seeing colors of light that have given her insights into her healing journey. She shares many beautiful tips, tricks and sips that have guided her along this new path of life. You can find Julie @80nsunny on all the platforms.

2 Corinthians 5:17 Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new. As the new year approaches, I've been thinking about new beginnings. What areas of your life need a new beginning? What would you like your new life to look like? What do you want instead of your current reality? In order to start again you will need a new vision of what's possible. With this new year coming up, I would invite you to ask God to be involved in helping you create a new vision for your life and fill you with the hope and good news that new beginnings are possible. I'd love to hear in the comments where you are choosing to begin again. I'll go first. I'm choosing to cherish my body this year. (I explain more in the video) I wish you so many good things for your new journey and I hope you have a happy new year!   Resources: Season 1 Wonders and Miracles: Stories of Miraculous Moments in Everyday Lives Hearts of the Fathers by Sheldon Lawrence, Support our sponsors www.meditationsonthemount.com   Visit www.wondersandmiracles.com for more stories or to submit a story.  Follow me on Facebook and Instagram @wondersandmiracles

President Ezra Taft Benson said "When we put God first, all other things fall into their proper place or drop out of our lives." What does it look like to put God first?

I've spent a lifetime believing that love was conditional; that it depended on my behavior. Love was available to me only if I had earned it or I deserved it by being a good/worthy person. However, this belief feels outdated to me and frankly, too heavy. Our beliefs are powerful things. What if believing that love is conditional, makes it conditional for me? Maybe it's time to update my belief system that love is unconditional? What would life look like if this belief were my truth instead? Would it be easier for me to receive the love that is all around me? What are your beliefs about Love? Is it conditional in your life? Are you blocking yourself from receiving love because of your beliefs? And if so, maybe it's time to change your belief that love is unconditional.

Today my guest Angel takes us on her journey back to the gospel of Jesus Christ. Having grown up in the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints, her whole life, she decided, when she got to college, that she wasn't sure if she was a believer in the church or even God anymore. She decided science was a better fit for her and became an atheist. For 10 long years, she argued with believers and carved out a life in a Godless world. It wasn't until the fear of her life falling apart and losing her two children in a potential custody battle, that she started to consider a spiritual path again. Listen to see how Angel not only found Christ again but also allowed Him to heal her marriage and family.

What is a miracle anyway? What is the purpose of miracles? Is there anything we have to do to receive a miracle? Albert Einstein said-There are only two ways to live your life: as though nothing is a miracle, or as though everything is a miracle. What miracles have you seen in your life?  

Today, Anna shares the first big miracle in her life as well as another sweet miracle of following a divine prompting. When Anna was 15 years old, she was living in Guatemala and her family had to drive down a steep mountain each Sunday to go to church. One Sunday her mother lost control of the car and was headed straight for a cliff. All of the sudden, the car was miraculously put back onto the road.

In 2002, Cindy drove herself 45 minuets to the hospital because a divine voice told her to “Go Now.” After a slew of tests, she was diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis (MS) an autoimmune disease that effected all four areas of her brain. The doctors weren’t sure if she would survive and told her she would probably be in a nursing home by the time she was 40. As she lay paralyzed and blind in the hospital she cried out to God “Why me?” God in return said, “Cindy, why not? I the Lord have more faith in you than you have in yourself.” She trusted in that message and focused on relearning how to eat, talk, stand, and walk. She truly is a living miracle.   Resources: Season 1 Wonders and Miracles: Stories of Miraculous Moments in Everyday Lives Hearts of the Fathers by Sheldon Lawrence, Support our sponsors www.meditationsonthemount.com  & www.bibledice.com   Visit www.wondersandmiracles.com for more stories or to submit a story.  Follow me on Facebook and Instagram @wondersandmiracles

She will share her story plus some perspectives on life that have helped her through her many “bald headed moments.” Resources: Season 1 Wonders and Miracles: Stories of Miraculous Moments in Everyday Lives Hearts of the Fathers by Sheldon Lawrence, Support our sponsors www.meditationsonthemount.com  & www.bibledice.com   Visit www.wondersandmiracles.com for more stories or to submit a story.  Follow me on Facebook and Instagram @wondersandmiracles

My guests today are two men who truly exemplify the traits of kindness, perseverance, and friendship. They have both lived miraculous lives. When Dave was just 10 months old, he contracted polio. His parents were told that he would probably not survive. Not only did he survive but Dave went on to become the only professional baseball player to pitch and play from crutches. Doug had a son who was born with a disability and he was inspired by Dave’s story. Things miraculously fell into place for Doug and Dave to meet and a partnership was formed. They now are inspirational speakers, authors, and run the Disability Dream and Do camp for children with disabilities. I know you will enjoy the many touching stories they share today.

One morning, three years ago, Daryl woke up to find that his garage had been robbed. Thousands of dollars’ worth of equipment had been stolen. But six months later when it happened again, his heart filled with bitterness, anger, and hatred for the woman who was caught and plead guilty for both robberies. Daryl grappled with this bitterness and prayed for help in forgiving this woman. A while later, Daryl and his wife were called to teach a Sunday church service lesson in the county jail. The assigned topic was repentance and forgiveness. After the lesson, a woman came up and requested a blessing from Daryl. When she told him her name, he was shocked to find himself face to face with the woman who robbed him. Daryl’s heart had an important choice to make that day.

Today my guest Lori shares the many miracles she and her family witnessed as her father Derrell, was dying from cancer. After 17 years living far away from family, things miraculously fell into place to bring Lori closer to home. She moved back just before her father’s cancer diagnosis. He was diagnosed in Sept. of 2020 and passed on Nov. 1st. Throughout the six short weeks they had left with him, they experienced and noticed so many ways that God was working in their lives during their time of sorrow.    Resources: Season 1 Wonders and Miracles: Stories of Miraculous Moments in Everyday Lives Hearts of the Fathers by Sheldon Lawrence, Support our sponsors www.meditationsonthemount.com  & www.bibledice.com   Visit www.wondersandmiracles.com for more stories or to submit a story.  Follow me on Facebook and Instagram @wondersandmiracles

Today, my sweet friend Kellie takes us on her breast implant journey. This journey is really more about noticing God’s Divine help along the way to lead her to awareness as well as providing a way to get her health back. We had a lovely conversation about body image and how to help us love ourselves more effectively. I’m grateful Kellie had the courage to be so vulnerable and honest about her experience.
