What you've written must be a confrontation of your understanding of the world. After all how could it not be? Two of the foundations in Christian Faith are based on miracles. Jesus's birth, and His reserection three days after his crucification. Both are the foundations of Christian fain and much Christian understanding.
Yet you've mentioned that this topic of miracles is a hard one to believe. A hard one to swallow. Let this Christmas be the start of something for you. The search of modern day interventions of God. Not to prove or disprove them. Just collect them. See how much God still interacts with us in miraculous ways.
If you can find God in His ability to do anything,my hen perhaps it can help you to believe in Jesus outside of the two miracles that surround His birth and His reserection after His death. It might matter because the gospel is filled with signs that Jesus is from God. Jesus even say it as such that the miracles He does are a sign of Him and His message coming from God.
The blind see, the lame walk, the dead are brought back. These were signs Jesus gave to assure John the Baptist that Jesus is the Massiah that John was waiting for and who he proclaimed Jesus to be long ago before being jailed. If those are miracles that Jesus offers of His authority and to be a sign of who He is, then all of the other miracles from virgin birth, walking on water, calming a storm,feeding thousands on two different occasions, the transfiguration, His prophies and them coming true about the temple being distroyed, even to casting out demons.
