When miracles don’t turn out the way we hoped

C. Michael Patton has written a moving post sharing a hard lesson he learned about interpreting signs and miracles in our everyday lives. I'll let you read the full post, but his conclusion is that we need to be very careful when we experience miraculous events and try to discern God's will from them—even when their message seems extremely obvious to us. In Patton's case, a very understandable misinterpretation of a miracle led to extra pain and disappointment later when things didn't turn out as hoped.

I hope you haven't gone through an experience as tragic as the one Patton relates. But have you ever seen a miraculous sign from God in your life that seemed to have an obvious interpretation, only to find out later that you'd misread it? Read Patton's post and share your thoughts.
