He knows it is not real.

For nothing could contain what you believe it holds within. Nor could it tell a part of God Himself what it should feel, and what its function is.

Yet must He love whatever you hold dear. And for each witness to the body’s death He sends a witness to your life in Him Who knows no death.

Each miracle He brings is witness that the body is not real. Its pains and pleasures does He heal alike, for all sin’s witnesses do His replace.

The miracle makes no distinctions in the names by which sin’s witnesses are called. It merely proves that what they represent has no effects. And this it proves because its own effects have come to take their place.

It matters not the name by which you called your suffering. It is no longer there.

The One Who brings the miracle perceived them all as one, and called by name of fear.

As fear is witness unto death, so is the miracle the witness unto life.

It is a witness no one can deny, for it is the effects of life it brings. The dying live, the dead arise, and pain has vanished. Yet a miracle speaks not but for itself, but what it represents.

Love, too, has symbols in a world of sin.

The miracle forgives because it stands for what is past forgiveness, and is true.

How foolish and insane it is to think a miracle is bound by laws which it came solely to undo!

The laws of sin have different witnesses, with different strengths, and they attest to different sufferings.

Yet to the One Who sends forth miracles to bless the world, a tiny stab of pain, a little worldly pleasure, and the throes of death itself, are but a single sound; a call for healing, and a plaintive cry for help within a world of misery.

The laws which call them different are dissolved, and shown as powerless.

The purpose of a miracle is to accomplish this, and God Himself has guaranteed the strength of miracles for what they witness to.
