Do Miracles Happen? The Pastoral Center

Can we experience "signs" and "miracles" like those in the Gospel of John? Not unless we approach the topic of miracles with hearts open to mystery and wonder in the realm of a living, active, loving God. In John's Gospel, the greatest miracle is that God became flesh and lived among us. John's other miracles-the wonder of abundance from little, healing and restoration, signs of impossibility and faith-all point to the great act of the resurrection and the divinity of Jesus. We witness the miracles, too, and then respond by following the signs toward the Way of Jesus.
