7/20 - Brenda Walsh
By: Pacific Press Author
Over the years there have been countless discussions and debates about miracles. Most Christians are firm believers in miracles while non-Christians aren't quite so sure. Some admit there are certain events or happenings that can't be explained, but are not willing to give God the credit. To deny the possibility of miracles is to discredit the Bible, and that is what many atheists have been doing for centuries.
So, just what is a miracle? The dictionary gives this definition: "An extraordinary event manifesting divine intervention in human affairs." Wow! Amazing isn't it, that even a nonreligious book such as a dictionary gives God the credit?
Someone once said that miracles are when God makes something spectacular happen and yet chooses to remain anonymous. But I see it quite differently. Miracles are when God reveals Himself! It is often when we are in our darkest hour and crying out to Him, acknowledging Him as our Lord and Savior, that we experience His divine intervention.
God is a God of miracles. Sometimes His miracles are very subtle and quiet, sweeping in like a gentle breeze. Other times, they are more obvious and evident. It doesn't matter how much money or education you have, the color of your skin, how educated you are, or anything else - miracles can happen to anyone!
