How do miracles occur? They happen when we let go. They occur when we put things in the hands of Christ. This is the key, and it's easier said than done. It's the epitome of faith. Too often when we want something we pray with anxiety instead of resignation and it is that resignation -- resignation to the will of God -- that often determines if what we want will materialize. 

         Once prompted by the Holy Spirit, we should give all to God for disposal according to His will. This is how people like Mother Angelica have received miracles. She was told to build a temple and though that grandiose plan sounded ridiculous, she stuck to the inspiration and operated with phenomenal faith. The result is the Temple of the Blessed Sacrament in Alabama -- one of the most beautiful churches in North America.
