When we lose something, how do we go about finding it? Whether it's our key, wallet, phone, or the notorious missing sock, normally we think about the places we most likely left it and search in each one until we find it, tending to start at the places most likely and continuing to increase the number of places we search until we are finally successful.
We may search the living room, our coat pockets, the dining room, the kitchen, our pants pockets, our car, our bedroom, call up the restaurant we just got back from, and shakedown our cat, but what happens if even then still we can't find it? We know that it has to be somewhere, and so we continue increasing the number of places we search: We look in the bathroom, check under the couch, see if it got in the fridge, and now interrogate the squirrel in our tree outside. We do this because we know that every place we search has a nonzero chance of having what we're looking for, and therefore the more places we search, the higher the chance of us finding it. In the end, only one place we search needs to be the location of what we're looking for for us to be successful!
This illustrates a principle I want us to take away: There are situations in life where we may make attempts at , but we only need one to be successful for that success to last forever. The more attempts we make the higher the chances of one being successful, to the point that if we make enough attempts, one of them is inevitably going to be true. This was and is true for
Thomas Edison, who made > 1,000 lightbulb variations and only needed 1 to work and forever change society
Paulina Bandy, who failed the bar exam 13 times before finally passing 1 time and becoming a lawyer
Me editing this blog (still don't know if I am successful)
And it is also true when you search every room in the house until you finally find your keys between the couch cushions.
Well, what do we search for and make more attempts to attain in this life than God and this universe's truth, happiness, meaning, and peace? People search everywhere - one could argue that all we do is search for those - and still few find them. We cannot find God.
That said, many people have found Him. One place He is present beyond a shadow of a doubt is at the miracles He has performed. And just like how our chances of finding our keys increases with the number of rooms we search, there are so many miracle claims that the chances of at least 1 being true, and of you finding God there, increases to 100%.
This website is a place where you can finding full documentation on various miracles. Check out this list to get started.
It is also a place for you to book talks on miracles if you are in need of a speaker event, or have others you'd like to share this information with and want an expert to present it to them.
Please provide feedback, share your own miracle stories, and let us know your thoughts!
Very powerful.
