Miraculous(神奇的)Strength
One chilly, December evening, I was preparing dinner. Suddenly, while setting the table, I heard a tremendous crash from the second floor. It was the kind of rare, heart-stopping noise that instantly struck fear into a mother's heart. Even the dishes in the kitchen cupboard rattled(發(fā)出咔嗒聲)!My seven-year-old son began screaming for help, and I raced up the stairs without even stopping to put down the dinner fork I held in my hand
Entering my son's room, I found my frightened toddler(學(xué)步的兒童)trapped under a five-drawer wooden dresser(衣櫥). It had been torn from its wall anchor. I could hear crying as I ran toward him. As I leaned over, I saw his small, bloody face and the terror in his eyes.
I pulled the large dresser off him. At that moment, I felt I could move mountains. I was fearful to look but quickly tried to assess how badly he was hurt. Begging him to stay still, I dialed 911 and began to pray. I prayed for the mercy that spared him and the healing he would need, given that I wasn't sure of the extent of his injuries. In those minutes before the ambulance arrived, although I was in a chaotic situation with both my sons in tears, an inner calm kept me focused and controlled. I felt a strong presence keeping me steady.
After the ambulance workers conducted a brief assessment, it was agreed that he should have a more extensive examination since this was a possible chest or head injury. A moment of pause forced me to process what had just happened. I recalled dashing up the stairs with a sense of fear as to what I would find. In only a few seconds, a lifetime of tender memories replayed in my mind. I had asked myself, "Is he still breathing?" "Are bones broken?" One moment,I was simply preparing dinner, the next. I was tearfully praying for my son's life.
Para1: On the way to the emergency room, I tried to keep him calm.
Para2: Back at the house, I found the miraculous strength that protected my son’s life— a small, hand-carved elephant.

On the way to the emergency room, I tried to keep him calm. He cuddled in my arms and whimpered in a painful voice. I kept stroking his head as if my comfort would chase away his horror resulting from that traumatic impact. In the emergency room, we did a series of examinations, all of which showed my son was left miraculously unharmed. “You can go home now.” The doctor declared, eyes widened with disbelief. Relieved, I thanked God for answering my prayer and was debating in my head what divine spirit was protecting my son.
Back at the house, I found the miraculous strength that protected my son’s life-a small, hand-carved elephant. It was a souvenir we bought at the Tanzania airport. Only three-inch wide as it was, it formed an important buffing area that spared my son from being crushed when that heavy dresser crashed down. Clutching the elephant to my chest, I closed my eyes and murmured a whispering thank you. If there were real miraculous strength in this world, it must be this hand-carved elephant which made its way from a remote African country to my son’s room and ultimately became his life saver.
