It’s a new year! How do you hold the most positive thoughts for what you wish to create for this next year? Do you believe in miracles?
Some might say it is unrealistic to expect a miracle, yet the word “miracle” has actually come a long way from its original meaning. It is derived from the Latin “miraculum” which means “to cause wonder and astonishment,” and “mirus,” which means “wonderful to see.” A miracle, therefore, is something that is extraordinary, inexplicable, and unexplainable by normal standards.
According to Webster, the standard definition for a miracle is something that goes against the normal laws of nature and is usually ascribed to some super power. In fact, virtually all religions express a belief in miracles.
In our current society, we are taught to believe only in those things we can logically understand. We are generally not taught that Universal Law reveals that we have limitless potential or that Universal Power can be used to work miracles in our lives.
What we need to know is that miracles are not logical BUT that we are connected to an unlimited source of energy and power as human beings. Most of what I have accomplished in my lifetime that seemed “unreal” by practical standards or impossible to others was very possible to me.
To open yourself to a miracle, pay attention to these principles:
- Stillness: Empty your mind through practicing stillness and moments of quiet receptiveness.
- Alignment: Align yourself with your heart and practice compassion in your world. Know that everything is energy (you included) and everything is available to you.
- Request: Make a request that is clear and decisive.
- Visualize and Feel: Elevate yourself to a higher state. Envision yourself happy, healthy, and whole, receiving what you have requested. See and feel this. Practice every day going into your “inner workshop” to see and feel yourself “having” what you have requested.
- Gratitude: Practice an attitude of gratitude. Give thanks for what you know you will receive.
Okay, you’re ready. Now set up the conditions and believe your miracle into being. Here’s to a great year!
