The Gift of Tongues
Joseph R. Banks recounts his miracle in the archive Saints At War. He and three other soldiers had escaped a Nazi POW camp in World War II. One night, they stumbled upon a German soldier who started yelling at them. Banks says that “before I could think of what to do, I was startled . . . to hear myself respond with a calm, confident German phrase that obviously was appropriate to what he’d asked me. . . He then replied to whatever I’d said with an almost cheerful, ‘Ja, Ja, Ja!’ . . . and went back into the house.”
Banks and his companions quickly hurried away. They asked him what he had said and he responded saying “I told them I had no idea what either he or I said, since I couldn’t speak German.” In the Church we hear of the gift of tongues, but this was truly an instance of the Lord putting words in one’s mouth.
