Chicken Soup for the Soul: A Book of Miracles: 101 True Stories of Healing, Faith, Divine Intervention, and Answered Prayers Paperback – Illustrated, September 21, 2010

I have enjoyed the Chicken Soup book series for many, many years and find them to be uplifting and comforting. This particular book is one of my favorites and many of the stories brought tears of joy to my eyes. I find myself picking it up again and again whenever I am feeling that there is too much sadness and grief in the world. Just reading a couple of the stories again reminds me that there is also much good in the world as well.

A story of mine called Miracle in the Highlands is in this book. It's about what could only have been a potentially life-saving miracle I experienced in Scotland. I was careful not to "gild the lily" because if God reads any of the Chicken Soup for the Soul books, it would probably be this one, if for no other reason than to see who is telling their stories accurately. If any of the contributing authors exaggerated for dramatic effect, "He" might not be too happy about it. :) Kidding aside, the stories by the other contributors combine to create a truly soul-stirring reading experience. What can be better than stories about God's hand in this troubled world? If your faith needs strengthening, this book is for you.

Awesome, true Christian stories. This is a must read. I love this book and have family members who want to read it too. I might have to get more of these.

Made a great gift for my 89-year-old Mama!

Best books on the market is my view as they help others to share in the same situations and know they are not the only one who experiencing an uncontrolled situation. They help bring one to reality and soothes the bite from the problem. Nobody is really alone unless they choose to be and with so many stories telling about a particular subject, these are very uplifting books. I bought this one for a friend whose husband was having terrible health issues and possibly facing near death, so they both needed hope and a reason to keep moving forward and knowing they are not alone.

As someone who believes in miracles, (yet never witnessed one) I wanted to read a book that proclaimed miracles. The miracles come in a variety of categories. Some are really big wondrous miracles and some are small day to day miracles. I found the book very encouraging in that miracles can happen to anyone, and we should never give up praying for one or praying miracles for others. I liked that the stories were short, perhaps too short in some cases, but still quite engrossing and readable. Some will bring tears to your eyes, others will amaze you, and still others that will make you smile.I recommend this book to those who need a spark kindled in their faith. My pilot light is lit after reading this book.kone

If you are down, or have health issues, family problems, or any other situation of that nature, this book will lift and inspire you. While it won't eradicate all troubles, it demonstrates how individuals through prayer and divine intervention saw the light and had a profound effect in their lives.While some of the "Chicken Soup" books I didn't care for; this one is exceptional. It is a must read for a dose of good old fashioned faith!.

This was truly inspiring and validated my dreams and signs I've had from losing my 20 year old daughter. I gave a copy to our Compassionate Friends group, a self-help group for parents who've lost a child. These are wonderful stories for anyone who's lost a loved one, be it a spouse, parent, or child. God bless!
