violation of natural law

I think that there can be violation of natural laws. for example miracle i believe are example of this type of violation. lets just say trees always grow upward well there might be per say a specific time or day in which a tree might just have its structure deformed and start growing in the opposite directions.

honestly i feel as if miracles at times do occur but yet there is no proof of it. but how can something overcome the laws of nature? how is a tree deformation considered a miracle? hume used the example of a dying man coming to life, but even then he says that is not a miracle. wheres the evidence? we cannot rely on a mans' testimony when they are not 100% trustworthy.

personally i agree with Hume that if there is not evident of miracle or i don't see miracle myself then i don't believe in miracle, everything could just be cause by laws of nature.

To be honest i believe miracles do occur sometimes, but we are to blinded and dont believe. To believe something you dont really need to see it
