Somebody this morning was talking about an unusual miracle witnessed by countless people. I believe, but I also believe in everyday miracles I mostly take for granted. When I think of almost any bodily system functioning, I am in awe of the delicate balances needed to sustain life. If one hormone stops doing its job or the pH balance gets out of whack, or if the heart rhythm is disturbed, or the kidneys don’t filter as they should, or the liver…how it all works together is a miracle. And conception: imagine two cells out of the millions of possibilities coming together to create a unique me. If it were another combination would I be a different person? And seeds: how can a seed that has lain dormant for decades still remember who it is? And what a miracle of nature it is for birds migrating thousands of miles to return to the exact lake where they were reared! The miracles all around are shouting for us to notice and appreciate. I want to do more of that.
