One family is thanking God for a miraculous discovery after finding a prized possession that survived a destructive house fire.
According to Fox News, one family from the Philippines lost almost everything they owned in a tragic house fire, except for a Bible.
Ruth Mary Repuyan and her family uncovered the beloved Bible through piles of ash and debris. Unlike their other items, it was mostly unscathed from the scorch of the flames. Repuyan called this a miracle.
“We will celebrate Christmas with nothing left. Everything was burnt, and the only thing we have is the Bible. This is a miracle,” Repuyan said.

Recently, another Christian family in Florida experienced an almost identical miracle when their home caught on fire from a Tesla charging port. While their house burned with items all around turned to rubble, the family Bible stayed untouched.
“That is my Bible… I cried because that’s where I have all my notes… That’s where I… read my morning time with God. I’m glad this is safe,” homeowner Meena Raky said of the discovery.
For these families, the fires did not have the final word. In the ashes of devastation, God left a reminder that His promises endure and His Word cannot be consumed. Their stories echo a powerful truth for believers everywhere: when all else fades, God remains—and His Word continues to bring light, hope and life even in the darkest moments.
