Ah, the peaceful power of truth. From the ether this morning came the reminder that personal miracles are taking place within us right Now. Right this very minute. Just because we do not know that, or more especially, do not feel it, does not negate it.
Miracles do not, cannot, take place tomorrow...like God, they can only be here and now. It is our reasoning mind that holds the recognition back. I suspect that's for the same reason Jesus said he couldn't let us in on everything all at once, we'd miss the message if he did. (Ahem...paraphrasing.)
It is a comfort to be reminded that just because we do not have conscious awareness of the fix to our problem du jour does not mean the problem isn't already lifted. The clarification just hasn't come to surface yet.
The ever-ready solution to our mind in turmoil is to turn our focus from the turmoil, i.e., our belief in the problem, pray our thank you, then step out in the grace of gratitude.
I am reminded of President Kennedy's message: Ask not what your country can do for you...ask what you can do for your country. We need ask not what God can do for us, but ask what we can do for any one of God's children.
Thank you.
