The Price of the Miracle

Sally was only eight years old when she heard her mother and father were talking about her little brother, John. He was very sick and they did anything they could do to save his soul. Only a very expensive operation that can now save the lives of John... but they do not have to charge for it. Sally heard her father whisper, "Only a miracle can save him now." Sally went to bed and took the jar from its hiding place. Then release all the contents of a piggy bank to the floor and counted it carefully ... three times. Its value must be completely right. By bringing the money, Sally slipped out and went to the drugstore on the corner. She waited patiently for the pharmacist to give her attention ... but he was too busy with other people to be bothered by an eight-year-old child. Sally tries to attract attention with his legs shaking, but failed. Finally she took the coin and threw it on the glass counter. It worked! "What do you need?" Pharmacist asked in an angry voice. "I was talking to my brother. '" However, I want to talk to you about my brother, "Sally answered with the same tone. "He's sick ... and I want to buy a miracle." "What did you say?", Said the pharmacist. "My father says only a miracle can save him now ... so how much does a miracle cost?" 'We do not sell miracles here, little girl. I can not help you. "'Listen, I have the money to buy it. Just tell me how much it costs. "A well-dressed man stopped and asked," What kind of a miracle is needed by your brother? "
"I do not know," replied Sally. Welling tears began to drip. "I just know he's really sick and Mommy says he needs an operation. But my parents can not afford it ... but I also have money. "" How much money do you have? "Asked the man. "One dollar and eleven cents," Tess answered barely audibly. "And it's all the money I have in this world." "Wow, what a coincidence," he said with a smile. One dollar and eleven cents ... the exact price to buy a miracle that can help your brother. Take the money and he then held Sally's hand and said, "Take me to your brother. I want to meet him and also your parents. "The man is Dr. Carlton Armstrong, a renowned surgeon .... The operation was completed without charge and it was not long until John was home again and doing well. Both parents are very happy to get such a miracle. "The operation was," she whispered, "It's like a miracle. I can not imagine how much "Sally smiled. She knew exactly how much the miracle cost ... one dollar and eleven cents ... plus the faith..
