The chances of a pack of cards being dealt out in a particular order are incredibly low (I'll leave it to the math's whiz kids to work out exactly how low) but you would hardly say it was a miracle if they came out in that order. Same with the chances of you existing. Things are always going to turn out some way, even if the likelihood of that outcome is very low.
Or in other words, the chances of the outcome having a very low probability are very high.
