It’s interesting to me that God can work in ways that we would never imagine. I don’t see God working actual miracles, and the bible clearly says that miracles have ceased to be, but God can still be active through His normal avenues of nature. I agree that sometimes doctors have all but given up, well, they have given up, but a patient got better anyway. God very well may have been the force of healing, but we couldn’t prove it, because He works through His natural processes. The body can heal itself, sometimes without God’s help, but other times I’m sure, with His help. As long as we keep believing what the bible says, “All things are possible with God”. Thanks so much for your visit here and for you comments, They are much appreciated, and may our God bless you richly as you strive to do His will.

Hi Steven. We definitely do get too wrapped up in this world to even notice what God has done for us, let alone appreciate what He has done. When we read His word, that’s when we area able to start appreciating what He has done. I believe that we have to realize our need for God also. If we keep thinking that we are self sufficient, we won’t see any need for God. But when something like you referred to happens, well then we’re not so proud and self-reliant. God does have a way of humbling us. It’s called life. And our life should be revolving around Him and not us. Thanks so much for your comments. Remember, “Ask and it shall be given to you, seek and you shall find, knock and the door shall be opened unto you.” Mat 7:7, May God bless you, Jim.

I am not a religious person but I do believe there is a designer of us and this planet, humans and life in itself is a miracle, it’s a miracle how it all fits into place.

I went through a really bad time a few years ago with depression and a friend said why don’t you talk to god and ask him why he is challenging me and say thank you.

I never understood that but I thought what the hell and I did and this is no lie I must have had a truthful heart to heart with him.

and within seven days, I noticed little cues and i found a girl who i am now engaged to and got the dream job i always wanted coincidence maybe but I believe he heard me crying for help and guidance and I believe this was a miracle, as he never said a word but offered a path i just had to accept him and follow the path, I will never forget that time of my life

Hi Kevin, thanks for sharing your thoughts. It is quite obvious that there is a higher power isn’t it? When we look around at nature we are in awe of it’s beauty and of it’s wonders. And with all due respect to you also Kevin, here’s where we get into the habit of using the word “miracle” too loosely. When we see the wonders of nature, we are in awe over it’s greatness, because we are looking at God’s creation. But we are looking at “nature”. It is certainly miraculous, how it all came about, but now that it is functioning as God has directed, what we see is “natural”. Even the word in the bible which is translated “nature”, means “growth by germination or expansion”, “natural production, lineal descent”. By God’s “supernatural” power, He has created something which now is “natural”. Do you see the difference?

Again, thank you Kevin for your input, and I know you are correct when you say there is a higher power. You are also correct in saying we all have purpose in our lives and a common consciousness. I pray that you use this consciousness to the best of your ability. May God bless you, Jim. Oh yes, one more thing. How to define that higher power. Moses once asked God what to say if the Egyptians asked him who he was sent by, and God told him, “I Am who I Am”. Tell them “I Am” has sent you. Exodus 3:14. There’s nothing more to say is there? God is the Eternal One, the “I Am”!
