Miracles

Define mirical.
I leave that up to you. I am interested in what christians have experienced that they consider a miracle.
Miricals defined by the bible would only include the acts or deeds performed by God, a prophet, or an apstole acting on God's behalf, and as such can't technically happen anymore.
Miracles are often times confused with God's provenance, or God's will. Often times people look to the spectacular or look for a sign or wonder to mark a miracle. God is the God of the known universe, if He created everything then why would He create the universe in such away as to have to circumvent it every time He wanted something done? Mircales had one purpose and that was to establish God Himself, or a prophet or an apstole as being of or from God. Christ Himself used this arguement with the Pharisees. In essence He said if I was not God then I could not do these things in God the Father's name. The stuff we see now is provenance. It is the will of God that we see or experience this stuff to help us establish and maintain our faith. 
Miracle: when a physical event is misremembered for emotional reasons. Not to be confused with statistically unlikely.

To-morrow, and to-morrow, and to-morrow,
Creeps in this petty pace from day to day, To the last syllable of recorded time; And all our yesterdays have lighted fools The way to dusty death. Out, out, brief candle! Life's but a walking shadow, a poor player, That struts and frets his hour upon the stage, And then is heard no more. It is a tale Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury, Signifying nothing.

a miracle is something that can't possibly happen, so they don't.
You can fix ignorance, you can't fix stupid. Tinkety Tonk and down with the Nazis.
Well I guess we just missed out then. We are 2000 yrs out of date. Its back to relying on faith with nothing tangible to look at.
