Miracles DO happen.
I have a local client I've been doing work for over the past three years. He's a gentle man, and his family is just as nice and as honest as he is.

He has a brother who has been completely blind for the past six years. For the past year he's been taking this herbal suppliment (I wasn't told the name of it). Well, this man has suddenly, spontaneously, gotten his vision back.

At this point nobody is saying "Yes, it's the herbal stuff that did it", but there seems to be just one other possible explanation: it's a miracle. The choice between reasons is yours. Personally, I choose miracle.

By the way, this man is a preacher.

Whatever the cause of his return to the sighted world, I'd say he has a lifetime of brand new sermons to choose from.

1. Do you know what caused the blindness?

4. He didn't say
All he said was it was complete blindness. Since it came back I'd guess some cause other than overtly physical (car wreck or other sudden disaster). I could be wrong.
