The Lord's Daily Presence in Our Lives
SALT LAKE CITY, UTAH -- As members of The Church of Jesus Christ of
Latter-day Saints, we believe in miracles, in the presence of God in
our daily lives blessing us, his children, with love, patience,
understanding, or just about anything we may need. Often that
presence is manifest in small, almost indefinable ways. Sometimes,
that presence is much more pronounced.
Jay A. Parry looks at those latter manifestations in "Everyday
Miracles: True Stories About God's Hand in Our Lives" (Eagle Gate,
$12.95). Recounting in more than 60 stories the experiences of people
worldwide who've felt the divine intervention of the Lord, Parry
offers a collection of simple, yet life-changing stories -- everyday
miracles -- which come as a natural consequence of the Lord's promise
that his Spirit will always be with us if we keep our covenants and
remain faithful.
"These miracles that follow the faithful are recorded in journals,
news clippings and family histories," he writes, "as well as in
memories and in hearts. Most miracles go unnoticed by the world at
large, but those who experience them cannot deny that the Lord's hand
is ever ready to bless and comfort us."
"Everyday Miracles" tells of spiritual promptings, warnings and
protections, each experience offering a message of hope and
encouragement that will help the readers deal with difficulties in
their own lives.
