Home alone?
The big question has always been how did we get there here?
Many people refuse accept the idea that there is a God and live their life as someone left at home alone... With no real reason for their life - purpose and the why of their existence? Sad!
If we remove the idea of a Supernatural Omniscient God - who is free to act in miraculous ways; we fall into the ditch of desolation and despondency inhabited by Athesis and most scientistic naturalist. Because then you remove the Lord God of the Bible {which is the history and story of man's relationship with God}... In other words we are out of step with God's creation by accepting the false views of the Anti-God scientific community which pits man's "progress" against the Faith in Almighty God!
While many may attempt to dismiss God - they have a difficult time denying Him when it comes to the many Miracles seen in everyday life... Many today are prone to either think or believe only the in "logical" or objective" terms - which are some of the so called truth?
Yet much of our truth is based upon own ideas about actual Logic and how we come to the true nature of reality. Which for the most part is based upon the common unacknowledged presuppositions of our limited seen, heard, felt, tasted, and / or touched earthly existence!
{Or almost nothing really concrete}
So in coming to think about actual miracles is to see the presuppositions upon which we base our thinking is very limited and difficult. Thus it becomes a very humbling endeavor.
Because we all see through the dark and dim cultural lens... It is necessary for us to take off the blinders and ideological lenses to actually find the real truth!
This offensive and take real courage to come to see that even with all the world's information - we are in fact perhaps no better off than some tenth century people who lacked none of the modern sophisticated " scientific" knowledge...
What is it about Human Pride which insists that our present generation is the one to finally see the unmediated and unadulterated truth?
Checking the current news or read recent history one can see the ideas which has produced a supposedly utopian desired society the past hundred years?
Yet would it not have been wiser to choose a different course for mankind?
Where does this leave you?

Example of a miracle = Jesus Heals the Official's Son - John 4:48
…47 When he heard that Jesus had come out of Judea into Galilee, he went to Him and was imploring Him to come down and heal his son; for he was at the point of death. 48 So Jesus said to him, "Unless you people see signs and wonders, you simply will not believe." 49 The royal official said to Him, "Sir, come down before my child dies."… {Which was the institution of the miracle}
** because God interveined when the official came to believe in God's power to save his child!
Faith always precedes any miracle and is required for anyone to the Blessed by it!
This is an example of the power of God - because all miracles are stories of Eternity touching mere mortal time - of heaven touching mankind on Earth!
Where the Creator God touches His creation; of the Supernatural reaching and contacting the natural realm of everyday life!
God's Miracles underscore the mystery of how our world dimensions of time and space intersect with the vast unseen Spiritual existence outside our limited composition which is only a glimpse of Eternity itself....
Can you Come to realize that you are not home alone - because God created and loves you!
