I see the distinction as irrelevant. If you're a person of faith, then everything is a miracle. Or it should be. If you believe in an all powerful yet personal and loving God, then everything is the will of God for whatever reason. And if you don't, then an infinite universe provides enough time and space for even the most improbable of things to happen sometimes, and it doesn't have to mean anything. I like the idea that we get to choose. Personally, I strive for a balance between seeing the meaning in certain events and letting my interpretation of that meaning rule my life and sway my major decisions or change the way I treat people.
