Quote by George Bernard Shaw

A miracle, my friend, is an event which creates faith.

A miracle, my friend, is an event which creates faith.

Summary

This quote by Paul Tillich suggests that miracles are not simply extraordinary events that defy the laws of nature, but rather moments that inspire and strengthen one's belief in something beyond what can be rationally explained. Miracles, according to Tillich, serve as catalysts for cultivating faith in the divine or supernatural. They go beyond mere coincidence or luck and inspire awe and wonder, causing individuals to question and reassess their understanding of the world, ultimately leading them towards greater faith and spiritual awakening.
