Dear SS( sincere seeker):
You don’t believe in miracles? That’s a pity, because your idol Richard Dawkins does. You didn’t know that Richard Dawkins believes in miracles? Yes, really, though he would prefer to call them ‘extremely improbable events’ rather than miracles. But don’t take my word for it, read what he says himself.
Dawkins writes:
‘A miracle is something that happens, but which is exceedingly surprising. If a marble statue of the Virgin Mary suddenly waved its hand at us we should treat it as a miracle, because all our experience and knowledge tells us that marble doesn’t behave like that’.
He continues, ‘In the case of the marble statue, molecules in solid marble are continually jostling against one another in random directions. The jostlings of the different molecules cancel one another out, so that the whole hand of the statue stays still. But if, by sheer coincidence, all the molecules just happened to move in the same direction at the same moment, the hand would move. If they then all reversed direction at the same moment the hand would move back. In this way it is possible for a marble statue to wave at us. It could happen. The odds against such a coincidence are unimaginably great but they are not incalculably great. A physicist colleague has kindly calculated them for me. The number is so large that the entire age of the universe so far is too short a time to write out all the noughts! It is theoretically possible for a cow to jump over the moon with something like the same improbability. The conclusion to this part of the argument is that we can calculate our way into regions of miraculous improbability far greater than we can imagine as plausible’

According to Richard Dawkins, miracles do happen but are simply highly improbable natural events. We examine his examples( in chp 11) — the hand-waving statue and the cow that jumps over the moon — and show that they are scientifically vacuous. We also see why the atheist needs to establish that literally anything can happen by natural causation given enough time (another false conclusion)...
Jesus has healed many blind people during His time on earth; since He is living today and forevermore, He certainly can heal our blindness whether physical or spiritual.
I can only pray that God heal your spiritual blindness, you only need to humble yourself and ask Him to have mercy !
To me "Nothing creates this universe" should be the biggest miracle, if it were really so. You should be called a man of great faith in Big Bang's metaphysical far stretched and extrapolated implications. You were not there when your "Nothing" created this universe, right? Yet you believe so wholeheartedly?
Actually, I think " Nothing creates this universe" is the most irrational belief of yours. Sorry to say so. You may think that is the only free lunch in the whole universe, Actually, it is the most costly lunch that will cost you eternal life. Seriously, you better rethink!
May God's truth shine on you like the Sun!

Ref: Luke 18:35-43
A Blind Beggar Receives His Sight
35 As Jesus approached Jericho, a blind man was sitting by the roadside begging. 36 When he heard the crowd going by, he asked what was happening. 37 They told him, “Jesus of Nazareth is passing by.”
38 He called out, “Jesus, Son of David, have mercy on me!”
39 Those who led the way rebuked him and told him to be quiet, but he shouted all the more, “Son of David, have mercy on me!”
40 Jesus stopped and ordered the man to be brought to him. When he came near, Jesus asked him,41 “What do you want me to do for you?”
“Lord, I want to see,” he replied.
42 Jesus said to him, “Receive your sight; your faith has healed you.” 43 Immediately he received his sight and followed Jesus, praising God. When all the people saw it, they also praised God.
