Wish for a Miracle?

Every morning when I get up I pray to GOD and wish for a miracle. There won't be a single person alive or dead who did not wish for a miracle during his or her life time. Whether or not your wish materialize the important thing to know is that you believe in miracles and it does not matter what religion or colour you are. All of us believe in miracles.

But believing in miracles are not enough, we need to do our duty as who we are and what we are. We do our side of the equation and then wish for miracles. You should understand one thing, nothing is going to replace hard work and sound judgment. Standing on cliff wishing for a miracle when I jump ie to fly away is obsolete stupidity.

We are not supernaturals but we have the power, the power to help others. You take a twig you can brake it easily, try with two then three etc with each additional twig it is getting difficult to brake. You alone can't do much you need to be part of a bigger equation.

What is a Miracle?

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

A miracle is an event believed to be caused by interposition of divine intervention by a supernatural being in the universe by which the ordinary operation of Nature is overruled, suspended, or modified. The term is derived from Latin word miraculum meaning "something wonderful".

Many folktales, religious texts, and people claim various events they refer to as "miraculous". There are no scientifically confirmed occurrences of miracles. Miracles are not subject to controlled experimentation and the mechanism of occurrence not recognized by the scientific community. One aspect of some miracles which makes them almost impossible to verify is the fact that they are often manifested only to small groups of individuals, and sometimes centuries ago.

People in different cultures have substantially different definitions of the word "miracle". Even within a specific religion there is often more than one of the term.

Sometimes the term "miracle" may refer to the action of a supernatural being that is not a god. Thus, the term "divine intervention", by contrast, would refer specifically to the direct involvement of a deity.

In casual usage, "miracle" may also refer to any statistically unlikely but beneficial event, (such as the survival of a natural disaster) or even which regarded as "wonderful" regardless of its likelihood, such as birth. Other miracles might be: survival of a fatal illness, escaping a life threatening situation or 'beating the odds'.
