Part good driving (a miracle a long time in the making), part good dirt on the side of the road, mostly miracle. Even the most mundane explanation of a miracle is seen differently by other eyes. But, every act of mine has some bearing on the future - good or bad, and I think that the good ones continue to outnumber the bad throughout the world.sharecropperhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15138522185303347235noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29128991.post-1170446559819435582007-02-02T12:02:00.000-08:002007-02-02T12:02:00.000-08:00Well, I'm with (God help me!)

I believe in, and preach on, the narrative and within the narrative the miracles are to be understood as events. They may also be metaphorical, but they must always be real within the narrative.
