Tonight I went to a CPR training for my job. Thrilling, I know. That is not my miracle. But today isn't my miracle.
A man named James sat next to me during this class. I was rather bored out of my mind as I had heard all of this stuff before. I took this chance to tell a joke to James about how boring this class was. He called me to repentance as he responded with, "Well, I'm pretty interested. My mom's life was saved just last week by some random passerby who saw her choking on some gum."
I realized that not only was I heartless, I haven't truly been grateful for the miracles I had witnessed in my life. This man had seen his mother saved and was so grateful that he went and decided to learn this for himself so that he in turn could save someone else as well. We all could learn something from this man. Gratitude is more than just thanking people. It's deciding that you will be changed because of it. What a miracle!
