God and Miracles

When a person consider the word miracle, the mind usually drifts back in time to the years that Jesus Christ was on the earth. The word miracle goes somewhat along those lines. A miracle is defined as a phenomenon in life that does not happen everyday and that mankind must attribute to God.

Humankind, with its puffed up egos, its arrogance and supposed intelligence does not look at our Eternal Father’s every miracle. The greatest of which is the conception of a child within a woman’s womb, from fertilization at one cell to the birth of a child at hundreds of millions of cells. When the egg is fertilized, the cell starts at one and doubles every micro second, each cell has a specific job to do. At the point of conception, the height, weight, build, eye color, hair color, is cast in stone. When the baby is born, he or she will be completely helpless, cannot talk or communicate except maybe to cry. They can see but cannot distinguish objects. They have ears that may hear but cannot distinguish sounds. They have hand, feet and limbs, fashioned as perfectly as yours and mine, yet they cannot hold anything. Their limbs cannot even bear their own weight.

Yet, from that little helpless babe may come the next Mozart, a Beethoven or great leader, another Edison, a Henry Ford, or a great scientist like Pasture or Fleming. When we as humans look for great miracles from God, just lift a rotting tree in the forest, or watch a mother or father hold their child. We do not have to go back to Christ time, for we are surrounded with our Father's greatest miracles everyday of our lives. Remember, in the world of miracles, common sense and intellect have no place.
