		<description><![CDATA[I have been thinking a lot about miracles lately.&#160; I’ve been wondering what makes an event a miracle?&#160; Last night I got on my computer and did some research trying to find out how others define what a miracle is. According to the Merriam-Webster dictionary, a miracle is defined as “an extraordinary event manifesting divine&#8230; <a href="http://www.thewhisperofgod.com/2010/01/miracles/">[Continue Reading]</a>]]></description>

The following is a summary of the top answers that were posted.  I have organized them into groups of answers that were similar.  In no particular order, the answers&#8230; <a href="http://www.thewhisperofgod.com/2010/01/the-three-most-important-things/">[Continue Reading]</a>]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Over the past six weeks or so I have been writing a series of articles called “Building a Relationship with God”.  During the course of the series, we explored talking to God, hearing God talk to us, looking for the signs God gives us in our lives, and how we know and learn the word&#8230; <a href="http://www.thewhisperofgod.com/2009/11/building-a-relationship-with-god-part-vi-6/">[Continue Reading]</a>]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[In parts 1 – 3 of our series “Building a Relationship with God”, we have taken a look at how to start to talk to God (through prayer) and how to start to listen for God (through mediation).&#160; Now let’s take a look at how God gives us signs that He is all around us.&#8230; <a href="http://www.thewhisperofgod.com/2009/10/building-a-relationship-with-god-part-iv/">[Continue Reading]</a>]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I once read the following: “Prayer is when you talk to God; mediation is when you listen to God.” In part 2 of our series we looked at talking to God or, if we base it upon the above, praying. Now it’s time for us to talk about how we listen for God.

		<description><![CDATA[I have had some people ask me how does one reconcile the seemingly conflicting views that God has a plan for us while we, as people, have free will and can choose to do whatever it is we want to do with our lives.

		<description><![CDATA[Many people ask the question: “What is prayer?” or “How do you pray?” When I was growing up praying seemed to be governed by rules and rituals. There were specific prayers that you were supposed to memorize and we were supposed to say certain prayers at certain times. I don’t think I ever really knew&#8230; <a href="http://www.thewhisperofgod.com/2009/06/what-is-prayer-how-do-you-pray/">[Continue Reading]</a>]]></description>
