Sometimes we make our own miracles. Consider, for example, the existence of the CLF, a church without walls, available around the world, at any hour of the night or day, to anyone who comes seeking connection, compassion and spiritual growth.

I have several dozen books about Unitarian Universalism in my home office. I looked through them all, and only three have any kind of entry in their index or table of contents for “miracles.”

I love a magic show, because the magician appears to do the impossible. But I also know that they deal in illusion and use specially-designed props.

Through the years I have heard people use the word miracle to describe things that I would assign other names: good luck, good medicine, pure chance, hard work. Overall, I’m with the everything is a miracle camp, one of those people who use the word often and mean it.
