I receive the miracle of life every morning. In a corrupt world where i used to sell drugs and shoot at people, I'm honored, relieved and privileged to still be here. Every morning i wake up and see my 3 little girls, is a miracle enough for me. I'm not in a war torn zone where i saw my family shot or raped and i eat every night. I'm not the richest man in the world, but I'm far from the poorest. And i love life and all of the abundances that God has given me. My miracle is the peace of mind amongst the destruction of man.

There are many forms of miracles. It doesn't have to be some great and magnificent event to qualify. If you look in your own life, you will probably find some pretty miraculous events. We often pass off ordinary events as coincidence but I think there should be more credit given where credit is due.
During my life, I have received answers to my prayers. Each one of those could be called small miracles. I have been voice to many blessings and received many blessings with results that could be called miraculous. I have seen my father seemingly manipulate the weather for his needs to be met. He would pray for good weather to get a job done or to accomplish a particular goal and it would happen as requested. I have seen people recover quickly from illnesses. I have asked for help speaking to people and have had the right words come to me as I spoke them. I have been able to provide for my family when I could not make ends meet on paper. I have seen evil spirits removed.
Without belaboring the point, the workings of the spirit are real and it goes on around us all the time. I know it is real.

I have witnessed materialization on two occasions: there is an orphanage in India where a tiny religious medal oozes amrita - sweet nectar. They let you hold it in the palm of your hand and it just keeps on coming. I have tried and searched the internet for a reasonable explanation but until now - nothing has come up.
(One of my Tibetan friends was not so impressed when I related this to him. He said: you in the West want miracles because you have no knowledge of how things work. In our country they happen all the time but nobody pays much attention to them. What matters is the quest for enlightenment, if you get a few miracles on the way ... no big deal!)
I myself, I love miracles: the mystery, the inexplicable. For me, it adds a sense of wonderment and adventure to life. Wouldn't it be boring if we suddenly knew everything? And in reality, we know very little and a lot of what we think we know today usually is proven wrong by tomorrow.
I'm a pagan, an eclectic.

I kinda do believe in miracles. But I don't think that god or anything like that has got something to do with them.
I think that miracles are just something like very big luck.
In my life there never was a real miracle, well nothing I would say was one... Of course it depends on what you think is a miracle. Some say the birth of a child is one... I don't think so...

Yes I believe in miracles. I witnessed my mother healed of skin cancer, breast cancer, and bone cancer, all within 10 years of one another. I am not sure of the definition, but if it is looser, I have witnessed many more. I would say being kept from going to jail, even after handing drugs to a police officer was pretty miraculous...in my opinion. But yes I believe, and I know miracles do happen.

Several. As a Catholic teen, my life was saved once, the life of some kid was saved when an angel took control of my hand while I was driving, and I watched a church function NOT get rained out, even though rain was falling all around the property. THAT was weird!
Oh, and as a nondenominational, I know two men who were raised from the dead. One was shot to death, the other died of heart disease. Both deaths were documented.

I believe in the concept of activity you define as "miracles" but I define them and perceive them differently. I've witnessed many. Buddhist here.

yes miracles happen daily but not all miracles are from God. Read the book of Revelation and it states this.
