When turning water into wine, Jesus 1st miracle, and the response was good wine for last, also meaning the Lord had died, raised again, and witnessed by many.
Parable of the house, for one who is foolish builds on the sand, weak and not able to resist the storm, and another who builds on firm ground, planted and strong to resist the storm. This refers to people of little or week faith, and works, and ones who are strong in faith and will whether the storms of life.

Miracle: Jesus walks on water, heals the paralyzed man, feeds 5 thousand people
Parable: Parable of the Mustard Seed, Parable of the Weeds, Parable of the Fishing Net

One miracle was the healing of the blind man. He was blind until the man had faith and asked Jesus to restore his blindness.
I always enjoyed the Parable of the Prodigal Son. The story brings hope to every believer. That no matter how far you’ve gone God our Father is waiting with open arms to receive you.

A miracle was something that transcended the supernatural, such as, Jesus walking on the water. A parable was a fictional story that COULD have been real, that was told to teach a lesson and was full of meaning.

Jesus performed His miracles to reveal that He is God’s Son and that He offer to save people from their sins as a legitimate reason.
On the other hand, with parables, Jesus used it to reveal truth to those who wanted and to conceal the truth from those who rejected His parables.
