The Miracle

Seven-year old Gia's mother was very sick.

Gia was heart-broken to see her industrious mother bed-ridden.

She could not afford to lose her only parent.

"Only a miracle can save her," the doctor answered after checkup. 

Gia knew where miracles were available.

She did remember the real-story her mother had told her.

Gia lost no time to visit that place- the local church.

Photo Prompt- Dale Rogerson

"Jesus, I pray for the miracle to save my mother", Gia sincerely prayed. 

There was a loud thunder and lightning. 

When she came out, Gia saw a bright divine light in the sky.

It followed her home.

    Gia sounds a lot like my character Melanie, I think they'd have some stories to share if they met and I hope Gia's would end happily.

    I love the idea of a bright, divine light following someone home. Wonderful metaphor.

    Your story is touching, and I believe in the power of prayer. I have to wonder, though--what do people do when there is no church building nearby? Prayer is just as effective in the hospital room as it is in the church building, yes?

    Miracles are a suspension of natural law. I guess whether they exist or not depends on how many people support natural law and how many people claim to have seen its suspension
