I think when you can't find a logical secular explanation for what you're feeling, feeling that something is supernatural that's happened, isn't such a big leap. Maybe everyone's threshold for describing these things is different, that could be, too. I could also easily say...''I don't know,'' as to what happened, if I can't find a secular explanation for it. So, there's that too. There's nothing wrong with saying ''I don't know,'' and it's also okay to say ''That seemed out of the ordinary, I wonder if that was Divine intervention?'' None of us know with certainty things that relate outside of our senses...it is hard to imagine that something actually might exist outside of our ability to comprehend it.
