I don’t think I made myself very clear yesterday. I’m thinking this because there is some dispute as to what a miracle is.
While I agree that watching a child being born (especially your own or one close to you), being treated in certain ways, and feeling specific feelings are all daily wonders, they don’t fit the textbook definition of a miracle.
Miracles are once in a lifetime occurrences. They aren’t things that will happen again. They aren’t things that happen on a daily basis (like childbirth).
We can define our own miracles but they wouldn’t necessarily be a miracle in regards to the definition of a miracle.
I wanted to know if you had ever witnessed someone healing another person by the touch of a hand or spontaneous happenings that had no definition.
I don’t know if they exist.
A child is a miracle to us. Yes. But a child is not a miracle to nature. Babies are born every second of every day.
I wanted to hear about miracles that could not be explained by science or human nature. I wanted to know if they exist.
I’m sorry for the confusion.
I managed to blog for over a year!
that definitely qualifies as we…
sail on… sail on!!!
