Do you think that doctors, and other medical professionals, sincerely believe in miracles themselves? Some research that I found suggests that about two-thirds of physicians have a belief in God; additionally, 45% report engaging in frequent prayer. Many physicians also recognize that the roles of medicine and religion cannot easily be separated. The scripture today comes from Numbers 21:7-9 and is the story of Moses holding up the brass serpent for the children of Israel (the Biblical story that the universal symbol for medicine is based on). When you put your faith into something--whether that is God or science or a medical specialist--whatever comes after that could be argued as being a "miracle;" usually it is miraculous, right?
