Another Miracle Hits the News
By Ken Horn | January 17, 2008
The news media have increasingly been willing to own up to the existence of miracles. The most recent is this one from the UK’s Daily Mail:
Miracle recovery of London man who was dead for an hour after ‘drowning’
A London man has made a “miraculous” recovery after nearly drowning and being left without a pulse for up to an hour.
Architectural technician John Deeks was dragged from the water by two bathers after his body was seen by a shark spotter off the Cape Town coast. A doctor who was sunbathing on the beach began mouth-to-mouth resuscitation.
Dr James Laing said: “I don’t know how long he had been in the water but I started resuscitation on him while someone else called for paramedics.
“It was between 12 to 15 minutes before they arrived and were able to use advanced techniques to revive him.”
While these things may be unexplainable by scientific reasoning, the lesson should be clear to anyone. Don’t give up hope! Miracles still happen.
Christians have a miracle working God, and our faith should be challenged by accounts like this … challenged to believe God for miracles in our own lives and in the lives of those we love.
If you’re in the midst of a situation today that seems impossible, take it to God … and believe for a miracle.
