Quotes About Miracles

On Religion: I'm reluctant to believe that some statue of the Holy Mother wept real tears in a church in Cincinnati or Peoria or Teaneck last week after the Wednesday-night bingo games, witnesses only by two teenagers and the parish cleaning lady.

One of the most important lessons of life—one I believe most people never learn—is that almost everything important is a choice. We choose whether to be happy (or, at the very least whether to act happy), whether to be a hard worker, whether to be honest, whether to be kind, whether to see miracles, and, yes, whether to believe in God (or, at the very least, live as if there is a God).

A faith based on miracles will quickly fade, dependent on the next miracle. Such an attitude cannot even be called faith.

Ma chère, I serve a man who multiplied the loaves and fishes"—he smiled, nodding at the pool, where the swirls of the carps' feeding were still subsiding—"who healed the sick and raised the dead.

Well, I reflected, it was better than being denounced as the whore of Babylon.

Es importante escuchar las cosas importantes, las revelaciones y los milagros. Así recordamos la grandeza de Dios

Nuestro señor dice que dejemos de pedir milagros, —Segatashya continuó diciendo en la cinta—, porque sus vidas son milagros.

Without the miracles we should have a teacher; with the miracles we have a Savior.

The New Testament without the miracles would be far easier to believe. But the trouble is, it would not be worth believing. Without the miracles the New Testament would contain an account of a holy man—not a perfect man, it is true, for He was led to make lofty claims to which He had no right—but a man at least far holier than the rest of men. But of what benefit would such a man, and the death which marked His failure, be to us?

Mama, you don't understand. It's all a matter of ideas, and God is just one idea I don't acept. It's not important. I am not going out and commit crimes or be immoral because I don't believe in God.

There is only Man, and it's he who makes miracles!
