Has anyone ever come in contact with something miraculous you could not explain?

For example in 1992 in Conyers Georgia at the Nancy Fowler farmhouse, myself and my parents smelled the strongest scent of roses, while standing in the middle of a rainstorm. My dad to this day still wants an explanation but I tell him that it was indeed something miraculous to experience. My aunt also had a rough illness and one night while praying to Mary to intercede, she claims to have heard a voice reply and say “youll be cured.”
Within a month her illness vanished.

Anyone have a sexy?
Saint Thérèse of Lisieux, O.C.D. Sacred Keeper of the Gardens The Little Flower. I have been told by others, one a religious, who experienced a rose and scent. St Therese in her books and writings speaks of how she will intercede for us from heaven in this way.
 
This occurred early on in my faith.

My family was working out of town for couple days and I agreed to sleep over at their house to tend to the animals. It was winter, very cold, snowy. I decided to sleep in living room near the wood stove which I kept going through out the night. When I woke in the early morning, just at day break, this is what I saw.
I pulled open the curtains. Snow and ice, like tiny snowflakes covered both windows…
But on one side, there was an large,( maybe 1.5 feet in height) image of the Crucifix. I say Crucifix, not a cross, for it also appeared, very slightly, Christ"s head bent down.
For me personally, this was a sign I was going in the right and true direction- back to the Catholic church. I took pictures of this and have shared the story with others on occasion as it would be helpful .
 
It was supposed to be the word “story”.

I’m not sure how to edit it to change it. I may also mention I hate autocorrect for Galaxy 7 phones. :o
Very okay! silly phones for sure. I got a chuckle of it and by comments, others did too. 🙂
thanks for starting an interesting thread!
 
Two things come to mind (though I’m sure there have been others through the years.)

The first incident happened many years go, when I was driving home from a play rehearsal late one evening during college. It had been a long day, and I apparently fell asleep at the wheel; this was on Rt. 128 west of Boston, a very busy highway. I woke up as the car was drifting into the next lane where there was a car right beside me, only inches away. I have always been convinced that my guardian angel woke me.

The second instance happened about 4 years ago, when my daughter was pregnant after several early miscarriages. She and her husband had already selected a boy’s name. They were very nervous waiting to see the doctor, as she’d had some spotting. (She was seeing a NaPro trained doctor, who is also a family doc.) After a few minutes, a nurse came out and called out the name “Gabriel _____”. They looked at each other in astonishment, as the name announced by the nurse was their as-yet-unborn son’s exact name, first and last. That was a sign to them that Gabriel was, indeed, present, and all would be well. Though her pregnancy was tough, their son was born healthy. He is now a funny, smart, feisty 3.5 year old.
 
I would venture to say this kind of thing happens ALOT more than we think, and probably in situations we would never expect.

Although I still wonder why it must be secretive and mysterious, what would be the harm of ‘kelly’ just telling you she was an angel sent by God to be with you during this time? and/or those 100 other similar accounts from people who get a helping hand, or saved from a fire, etc only to have no one there to thank, and no one else seeing the person, again, what would so wrong about it being known angels are doing this and everyone to see them as they are? Imo, that would be a good thing, draw more people to God.
Many people knew of our daughter’s story and she became known as the "kick count " baby. I don’t know if God used that whole situation, including nurse Kellly, to being others to him at that time. While in NICU, she was visited my Protestants and Mormons and many people prayed for her.

Looking back, I really don’t understand why it all happened the way it did. Why was she waiting for me when I got there? Why did she look like a person and not an angel? I spent two years thinking she was a real person and even read through hospital records looking
to see if her name was mentioned. I don’t know, I just don’t know why or how…
 
Quite a few over my entire life, actually. But a couple months ago I swear I’ve definitely been smelling roses as well. If there is anything I really really want in Heaven from my Lord and Saviour, it’s that I want to see my Mystery Woman.
