Miracles are a pretty major thing to believe. It is quite tricky and confusing to think about, so many people can’t get their heads around it. Although some people claim to have experienced a miracle others haven’t and without this personal proof and experience then they refuse to or can’t believe in the miracles.
For example in the Bible it tells us of the healing of a blind man and a man who can’t walk. For them just to be touched by Jesus, then suddenly cured of their disability seems pretty impossible to modern day people and Christians, as we don’t hear of anything like that happening in this day and age.
The Resurrection of Jesus is possibly the hardest miracle to believe. To rise from the dead is truly amazing, and although Christians believe that God is the Father and made Jesus rise, however it is still quite a challenge to believe.
Miracles are a large challenge to a Christians faith and beliefs, they may have happened to challenge us, and they certainly do.
Many Christians believe that Jesus performed miracles and the bible tells of them in order to challenge us in our faith. God knows how hard they can be to believe and therefore uses them to test us in our faith and belief in God.
All these are reasons why many Christians and non-Christians find it hard to believe in miracles, but also why some believe miracles were performed. I personally do believe in miracles, despite the lack of proof and the challenges, which miracles do bring, I know how much of a challenge they can be to my faith but ask God to help me overcome these difficulties.
