Back in '88, a family was attempting to travel back to Milwaukee on Christmas eve was stranded in O'Hare airport due to a snowstorm. They had spent their last dime on transportation and were going nowhere fast.
Just when things were at their bleakest, the mom overheard a young man on the telephone. He mentioned that he would be in Milwaukee in an hour. She desperately approached him. Grabbing him by the arm, she asked if he had found a flight to Milwaukee.
When he explained that he was taking a limo to Milwaukee, she was severley disappointed. However, Her desperation moved him. He instructed her to take her children and husband to the waiting limo. They shared an enjoyable ride from O'Hare to Milwaukwee.
Once at home, she asked for her benefactor's phone number. All she wanted was to deliver some thanks the next day. He readily supplied a number and went on his way into the night.
The next day, she called the number. An older woman's voice answered. The Milwaukee woman mentioned that she just wanted to thank "Joey" for his kindness the night before. The older woman was a little confused, but thanked the woman for her sentiment. The older woman explained: You see, we know Joey did many favors for folks when he was a pilot, but he's been dead these past ten years. We thank you for your remembrence.
The Milwaukee woman was taken aback. She said "No, he took us to Milwaukee last night, in a Limo!". The older woman was polite: "No dear, young Joey died in a plane crash 10 years ago with his wife and children. They were comimg back from vacation in Florida. The older woman then said: "Thanks so much for your sentiment" and hung up.
Be careful in you treatment of strangers, because some have entertained angels, unawares.

Miracles sometimes come when you least expect it.
we had an experience back in '95 right after a really bad car accident, a guy came up to our car while we were waiting for the police to come to the site, he asked if he could pray with us and we soon as he said 'amen' he vanished, prety cool, we just knew
to this day, my tree is decorated in 95% angels :)
Here's another miracle.
LM, that is too weird. Stuff like that freaks me out.
Drew, never store your life savings in a cracker box. Put it in a cereal box instead.
Orbs, it sounds like it would be creepy but this odd sense of calm was all I felt, not bad right after having our 1st nice car completely totaled and being within a split second of not even being around anymore
