CD Player...Miracle or Mystery?




About a month ago I sent my editor a few short inspirational phrases that "came to me" out of the blue. I'd never heard them spoken, sung, or seen them written anywhere, but they just showed up in my mind and I wanted to put them in my book.

Fast forward to today . . . I'm working on more material for my book and my CD player starts up all by itself playing the Anne Murray song, "What a Wonderful World" over and over three or four times before stopping itself. I thought that was strange if not creepy, in a good way, but nothing like that had ever happened to me before.

I'd only been playing her first five songs over and over from the first CD. When I looked closer I realized there was another CD in the set that I hadn't listened to, so I started playing it. When Anne started singing the words to "The Other Side" I couldn't believe my ears.

The lyrics were an exact match for the phrases I'd sent to my editor and he had put in the First Edition of my book, The Magic of Everyday Miracles, and the whole experience sure felt like a Miracle to me!!

Here's the poem I sent to my editor before hearing the song lyrics.


ON THE OTHER SIDE

On the other side of
Doubt is Faith

On the other side of
Pain is Strength

On the other side of
Fear is Love
