Miracles

     What is a miracle? I had never really thought about the actual definition of one until class. I do not think that a miracle is brought on by praying to a god, or living a sin free life. I think I believe the explanation that Professor Johnson stated, that "miracles" have a reason, we just don't know, or need to know what that reason is to believe it. Sure, maybe some of you may say that the reason is God or something like that, and that is a fine explanation if that is what you believe, but I think it is something more than that.
       Will I never question a miracle, but I do think that there is a greater reason for it. The reason may be scientific, but I'm not going to find that out because science is not my forte. I think I believe that everything in this world happens for a reason. I don't think I will ever know the reason for most things, like why a child dies, or why a group of people decided to fly planes into the World Trade Center, but I think it needed to happen for the world to continue in a certain way. Perhaps this is just me looking at the world with the glass half full, but it's what I believe. Everything that has ever happened needed to happen for the world to exist as it currently does.
