Miracles

“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.”

Though I do not fully understand all that Lewis was trying to teach when he was writing miracles, I do have an understanding of the faith that He had in God. The problem with not having a full knowledge of the restore gospel means that you can only piece to gather certain things, with hunks of the puzzle still missing. 


But in the quote mentioned above, Lewis it it on the head. Miracles are right in front of us everyday, in the lives that we live, in the things that we see everyday. The problem is not in the miracle, the problem is in us. 


Lewis also said: 

The grounds for belief and disbelief are the same today as they were two thousand — or ten thousand — years ago. If St. Joseph had lacked faith to trust God or humility to perceive the holiness of his spouse, he could have disbelieved the miraculous origin of her Son as easily as any modern man; and any modern man who believes in God can accept the miracle as easily as St. Joseph did.

We can have faith in the miraculous birth of Christ. Why can't we then believe in miracles as they happen each day. Looking out for those miracles in our lives will bring us great blessings, one, because we have the faith to look, and two, because we will be so much the better for it when the Lord does bless us with them.
