Miracles Unaware
Creating a “Miracle Family,” by Gary and Joy Lundberg
I have to admit, I have never thought about testifying of the small blessings that Heavenly Father has blest me with, let alone, to recite them to my family. I had to download your song, even though I don't know how to read music. I enjoyed the words to "Miracles Will Come." Thank you for taking me down "my" memory lane — in remembering all of the miracles that Heavenly Father has given me and my family We, too, are a miracle family!! And to think, I didn't even realize it!

I read your article on Meridian Magazine and was impressed to share your talk and the music for our family home evening. I play the piano but not professionally. Just enjoy singing with my family around the piano. Thanks for sharing.

Thank you! After I read your article about becoming
a miracle family, I realized I had been neglecting to take some trouble to the
Lord and let him take care of it. I repented for all the energy I spent stewing
and fretting when I could have turned to the Lord first thing! My prayers were
answered quickly! I am very grateful for all the miracles, big and small that
occur in my life every
day.

The Miracle of Temples
Sacramento Temple Dedication: More Than Meets the Eye, by Maurine Jensen Proctor, with Photography by Scot Facer Proctor
Thank you so much for featuring the Sacramento Temple dedication in Meridian. We live in the temple district and were able to help with the open house and hoped to see the dedication, even if it was from the stake center. However, we had received our mission call and reported to the
Provo MTC on August 28, 2006. We had asked if it were possible to view the activities from BYU but we were not able to make that happen. Your articles and pictures were the next best thing to being there in person. Thank you so much for the excellent coverage.

Miracles from Family History Work
Thanks for a wonderful article.
I too have had similar experiences. As soon as I submit and do the temple work for my ancestors, the lines open up on those particular people and their families and information starts pouring in.
I'm a convert, so I have focused my work on my own family. My husband's family supposedly had all their genealogy completed and temple work done, but I felt a strong need to start looking at his family lines anyway. I have found many surprising gaps in their temple work and other areas.
As we started to do their temple work, more information started pouring in! And our living family members are suddenly starting to take interest in each other and the family. I don't know if this is an end result of the temple work being done, or if we ourselves have changed because of our seeking out our family. Perhaps our families on the other side are just working on all their living family members; but the spirit whispers to me that it is a little of each. There are little quiet miracles happening all around us if we just look.

The Miracle of Human Love
This past week I have been pondering and praying about communicating with my grandchildren. I asked Heavenly Father what to do. Normally, I am a fairly creative person, but no answers came — until this article popped up on my screen. I loved all the ideas and I know my grandchildren will, too.
One thing I did about a year ago — I have one 6-year-old granddaughter who lives in Nevada (I live in Wisconsin). We visited her (and her family) about a year ago. I took all sorts of pictures and because I have a digital camera, I let her take pictures, too. When I got home, I made a "book" that told about our time together and included photos to illustrate. I loved making that book, and my son said that his daughter wanted it read to her all the time.
