'The purpose of miracles is to teach us to see the miraculous everywhere' - St Augustine (354 - 430)

*And that means that you should be looking for those miracles on a daily basis. Can you think of the last time you stopped long enough to even look around you. The 4th of July is a special day for a lot of you, spend a little time today looking for your own miracle. You might be surprised at what you find! Life is made up of tiny miracles! Unfortunately most of us miss them!

A few more Quotes

Miracles are a retelling in small letters of the very same story which is written across the whole world in letters too large for some of us to see.”
C.S. Lewis

“The way I figure it, everyone gets a miracle. Like, I will probably never be struck by lightening, or win a Nobel Prize, or become the dictator of a small nation in the Pacific Islands, or contract terminal ear cancer, or spontaneously combust. But if you consider all the unlikely things together, at least one of them will probably happen to each of us. I could have seen it rain frogs. I could have stepped foot on Mars. I could have been eaten by a whale. I could have married the Queen of England or survived months at sea. But my miracle was different. My miracle was this: out of all the houses in all the subdivisions in all of Florida, I ended up living next door to Margo Roth Spiegelman.”
 John Green

Miracles happen everyday, change your perception of what a miracle is and you'll see them all around you.
Jon Bon Jovi

“There are two ways to live: you can live as if nothing is a miracle; you can live as if everything is a miracle.”
Albert Einstein
