Miracles, what are they?

I think that miracles aren’t as “amazing” as we sometimes think. I mean, they are amazing but it’s not like God is changing something into anything new, or making something into something it shouldn’t be. See I realized the other day that when God does a miracle all he is doing is returning that thing to it’s natural order. He is fixing it. What I mean is that the world was created perfect and only because of sin do we have disease, death, disfigurations etc. So when God performs a miracle it is really just him fixing the person or situation and restoring it to the way it was created.

This is the same thing that people do whenever they fix a computer and return it to it’s natural state, or fix a broken garment, or repair a car. These items were created working and when we fix them we are doing “miracles”.

Now all of what I said doesn’t mean God’s miracles are any less amazing. It’s still awesome to think that he raises people from the dead, heals the sick, finds the lost, and loves us, even though we are sinners. Plus there are the miracles like walking on water and turning water to wine and splitting the red sea in half, and I don’t think those miracles are exactly returning something to the natural order. In fact they would be what I said miracles aren’t earlier God changing something into something new.
So I, for one,  am still in awe and fear of God. His miracles are still amazing to me!
