John's facebook post today.

Some folk say I'm a miracle, but I just feel so ordinary, and like I always did. I think the miracle is that I'm functioning up to specs, however for all of you who are in the same boat of normality, you are miracles too. And that's because -thanks be to God- our God operates, shapes, and directs from an invisible world through our real world to make the miracles seem normal.

So you have to hand it to God, who is so devoid of "self" and taking credit for what He obviously does. He works in a invisible, seamless, and yet 'direct touch' way, but through human hands and hearts, so that they seem they are the players. But at best, all we are are mostly unaware channels that God is using us. In ministry, when we manifest compassion or whatever, we get to feel His own compassion, as it were our own. With that awareness, miracles, are events or triggers or catalysts in ongoing heavenly intervention that have God's fingerprints and heart all over it.
