Nothing Short Of A Miracle

25 Chapters

Additional Info
God doesn’t need us humans to work miracles for Him, but as veteran Catholic author Patricia Treece shows here, it certainly seems His good pleasure to perform great miracles by means of human prayers and human hands, and particularly by means of the prayers and hands of His saints.

A quarter century in the making, Treece America’s most experienced and revered saint-watcher has gathered in these pages countless fascinating true reports of miraculous healings brought about in our lifetimes through the saints.

Among them is the complete 2005 cure of Sr. Marie Simon-Pierre’s advanced Parkinson’s Disease after she appealed for healing to the just-deceased Pope John Paul II. After intense scrutiny, the Vatican declared her healing miraculous, leading to John Paul’s beatification.

Here, too, are tales of scores of lesser-known healings brought to light by Treece’s own investigations into little-known official Vatican documents as well as from her many interviews with living witnesses of miraculous healings, including several conversations with souls whose healings have been accepted by the Vatican as grounds for canonization of their healers.

When faced with a woman skeptical about whether she could be cured, the healer Solanus Casey is reported to have said, “Don’t you know that God can cure cancer just as easily as the common cold?”

Not only can God do this. These pages show that He is doing it . . . so often and so obviously that even in our day miraculous healings regularly give pause to the most hardened skeptics, and bring joy to the hearts of believers who rightly see in these healings overwhelming and continuing evidence of God’s providential love for each and every one of us. May they bring joy to your heart, as well, and renew the confidence in His love that God yearns for you to have!
