From our past: 'My child needs a priesthood blessing'

[_Boaz & Lidia]

Like I said, I envy you for your perspective. It's perhaps good you weren't there. Your life (and mine) is much simpler without this angle thrown in.

Funny thing I've learned first hand about miracles. If you don't experience them yourself there is no requirement to believe them. Besides, like you pointed out, there are plenty that are just bonafide hoaxes, Faith-Promoting Rumor's or figments of our imagination. Really, who cares if they're true? I've stepped back shaking my head anyway.

This is one experience of a hand-full. I can't speak for anyone elses.

Inc, you are avoiding deconstructing this experience. Why? Do you want to retain it as a miracle?

If not, let us continue to deconstruct it:

At what point did you give him a blessing?

Immediately upon arrival to the ER? or 45 minutes later?

Why did you not do it immediately after the collision?

Also, how many minutes passed between the accident and the moment you gave the blessing?
I ask this detail because if he did have shattered bones and internal injuries the EMTs would have seen external signs and he would have been whisked in past all of the hypochondriacs who typically clog up ER rooms.

Even as a TBM I felt very uncomfortable given blessings. I've only given a couple.

What I'm curious about is how many of you pulled the old SPBH in order to make the blessing seem more powerful. Oh, that means "shakey priesthood blessing hands". If you ever got a blessing by someone who was really caught up in their Godly guidance and healing powers, you'll notice that their hands often tremble. I could never figure out if the blesser was trying to subcounsciously make it seem like the holy ghost was making them quiver or if they were putting on the mantle of an aged patriarch or holy man who trembled with age and wisdom. You guys ever notice this? Be honest, did you ever sneak in a Godly tremble here and there during a blessing?

I have participated, given, received or witnessed hundreds of these blessings. Never once have I seen what you describe. I think you are frankly full of it.

no thanks.

Actually, in a way I'm sorry I shared it. There's a little more to it that might put it into perspective, but honestly, I wish it weren't a miracle. I'd rather forget it if it will never make sense to me. I'm very tired a being part of any of God's will at this point - if that's what it was. He doesn't need my help and I feel used - by Him.

I've seen and experienced some amazing things, but I would give it all up in a heartbeat for some friggin' peace of mind.

I have more interest in gaining a better understanding of what Truth Dancer is relating. I've experienced that too. Thanks TD.

Inc, based on all of the facts you have given, this was not a miracle.
