Excellent stort IG! I had a similar christmas miracle with a pack of gum.
One snowy day on the way to work a homeless man asked me if I could "spare some change." Well, because of the overwhelming christmas spirit I felt, I decided to give the man $.50. I was in a cheery mood because I anticipated receiving a job promotion later that day. So, I walked into work, said hello to the usual people and I noticed my boss yelling at one of my coworkers in a distant office. This frightened me a little, so I said a silent prayer to jesus.
Later I found out that my boss was yelling over a case of very bad breath and to quote him, "Bad breath doesn't increase profits, does it?" I got a call from my secretary. I was getting nervous because I breathed on my hand and it smelled awful. Damn! I thought, "two onion bagels!" Her message was what I dreaded, yes, my boss wanted to talk to me.
There was no way I could see him in my present condition, so I raced down the hallway to a vending machine. "Shit! Where's my change? That damn homeless guy!" I could hear the phone in my office ringing. I had to go. So as a last resort I put my fingers into the change return slot. It had $.50. Not only was it the exact amount of money needed for a pack of gum, but also, the exact amount of money I gave to the homeless guy. Coincidence or Jesus?
I bought the gum, chewed it and walked confidently into my boss' office and received the promotion. He even complemented me on my breath. Jesus saved my job and I even scored a promotion.
I used to think cynicism is bad. I know I used to not be so cynical.

In spite of the comments from some of the Scrooges on this board (bah humbug), I really liked that story.... very positive... made my day ... Thanks!
There was this beggar that annoyed me a lot, so, this Christmas, I gave him three dollars.
He went out, got so drunk on that money, and got run over by a bus. See, God really does answer Christmas prayers!
And I got the refund on his bottle!
jk.
