Be the Miracle: 50 Lessons for Making the Impossible comes out January 9
We all pass miracle workers every day. They’re disguised as teachers, cab drivers, hairdressers, nurses, secretaries, neighbors and the like. Be the Miracle is a collection of stories and essays to inspire people to be the miracle right here, right now.
It’s easy to feel overwhelmed by all the problems in the world. We often hear, “Why doesn’t someone do something about this?” Or say, “It’ll take a miracle to fix that.”
We want someone else to act, but miracles aren’t just what others do. They’re what each of us can do. They’re what happen when you decide to Start where you are. Get busy on the possible. Magnify the Good. Carry as you climb.
I hope you continue to enjoy my first book, New York Times bestseller God Never Blinks: 50 Lessons for Life's Little Detours. It’s now in paperback and in 20 countries. You can also find me on Twitter and Facebook.
Thanks for all your support, and wherever you go, be the miracle.

What a joy to meet so many miracles.
My new book "Be the Miracle" has only been out for two weeks and it's already been an amazing journey. People are blessing me in so many ways.
Last week, 300 people showed up at the library in Independenc. On Monday, 200 came to The Plain Dealer. On Tuesday, 200 more came to the library in Strongsville.

Tonight, more than 400 people braved a snowstorm to come to St. John Vianney Church in Mentor. One man gave me a thumb cross, a little wooden cross to keep in my pocket to remind me to be grateful.
Tony Stroczynski, a master wood carver from Mentor, originally carved them for the sick and dying. His wife, Lottie, was a nurse who gave them out to patients. They have both passed on, but others have continued their ministry.
A woman named Alice handed me sticky note with a prayer...
