Sometimes miracles are not what they appear to be!
A Walking Miracle
by Mario PIERRE
“I’m a firm believer now,” old Ralphie declared.
“How so?” Willy asked.
“Last month, for the first time in my life, I went to church. I closed my eyes and prayed. Earnestly.”
“And?”
“In a vision, HE appeared to me and very clearly whispered: ‘Thou Shalt Walk!’”
“Wait a minute! You still have a weak limb. And how about this cane, huh?”
Ralph ignored his friend’s remark and continued:
“Believe it or not, I did walk the two-mile stretch home after the service.”
“Didn't you drive to church, Ralphie?”
“I did. But someone stole my car from the parking lot.”
