acts of God

There may be a distinction between miracles and coincidence. Some say these incidences you call miracles are all from the Good Lord while others say mere coincidence. I, myself, have seen true acts of God in my life just in the last year and a half. Watching all of the wonderful things that have come through for me when I was at my lowest point in life (thus far), I realized only a higher power could have allowed everything to fall into place so perfectly-not coincidence. I believe there are incidences are merely coincidental but I also believe in the power of God and Miracles.... God bless, Jen

By definition, a miracle would have to be an act of God. A really good thing, however, is just a really good thing.
A coincidence is just two things that happen in conjunction. It's not impressive unless someone predicted the overlap before the occurrence. Stuff happens, sometimes stuff happens at the same time as other stuff.

As said before, what you decide they mean really depends on your belief system. To me, miracles are just coincidence, and SEEM "divine", because, as John Travolta tells Samuel Jackson in "Pulp Fiction", after they get shot at many times but don't get hit, "I think we just got really lucky" (or something like that). Samuel Jackson's character thinks it HAS to be a miracle, and "Act of god", due to the unlikely nature of it, but unlikely things happen all the time.

Just like any trick or false account . did you think David Copperfield really made the Statue of Liberty disappear?
There are no actual miracles in this world;there is a logical
explanation for all whether obvious or not . We live in the natural world and the laws of nature apply to everything within this realm . If something were not natural it could not exist in our world period.some natural phenomenum are merely still unexplained but still comply with natural laws once there nature is discovered as always has been the case.

Having experienced some miracles myself, no one can ever try to tell me that they were not the work of God.

Some are miracles and some are probaly just coincidence. I've seen both.

If it is a miracle then it is an act of God.
