I truly love this quote from Wayne Dyer: “I’m realistic. I expect miracles.”
What’s not to love about miracles? And honestly my intention is to continuously expect miracles, however, I seem to struggle at times expecting to see miracles in my life. I guess the truth of it is that I need to be better about actually recognizing them. But in reality—safe travels, quiet moments after a long day, reading the right passage at just the right time, or hearing just the right song on the radio at just the right time—these are all miracle examples.
This may have you scratching your head because when many of us think of miracles we think of people walking on water or making the lame walk. And, yes, those are miracles as well. The miracles that I’m referring to are encounter daily– miracles of the mind and spirit.
I was reminded more about this concept through a recent healing session. Through a friend, I learned of a gifted board-certified internal medicine/rheumatology physician, Dr. Lisa Weinrib, who became frustrated with her traditional practice and opted to pursue holistic healing. She considered herself to be almost agnostic until she had a life-changing spiritual awakening, after which she devoured information about spiritual healing–intuitively incorporating the best of these techniques with her clients. She has obtained some amazing results helping people with financial, relationship issues, physical complaints and life purpose discoveries.
The way she understands healing today is that the soul needs to be healed first–it needs to be cleared energetically and this healing then filters into the mind and finally translates into the body. Dr. Lisa has authored a book titled “Healing the Soul” to further share her healing philosophy and experiences.
After my session, Dr. Lisa shared a specifically-tailored and channeled assignment which included daily affirmations, certain foods to consume for a period of time plus a request to receive progress feedback 7 and 30 days out. (She wants to learn about resulting big and small miracles.) She also explained that because we are like onions with layers of issues and experiences, this may take some time while some things may change more quickly. It’s good to remember that the invisible realm will arrange for things to manifest when we release the resistance we place around it! Oh my–heavy sigh!
Here’s the deal–if we train our minds to expect miracles and know (at a deep cellular level that anything is possible) then our experiences can radically change for the better, (however, much is up to us).
“…with God all things are possible” Matt.19:26
Dr. Lisa states “at the end of the day, the beauty of my work is that it’s not what’s outside you that’s going to make the difference, but how you transform your innards. What I’m trying to do is help people raise their vibration to a higher level. With higher vibrational energy, you not only get rid of negative situations, but you don’t draw in additional negativity.” –hence, the importance of expecting miracles!
Everything is energy and the more we mimic the trust we have in God and the Universe to deliver, the more our lives will flow with ease and with grace.
The more we see miracles, the more we’ll believe in them and the more they will show up. It’s using the basic Universal principle energy flows where attention goes. When we think about something, and feel good about it, it makes an energetic connection in the quantum field, which then gets manifested in our physical life.
“There are only two ways to live your life. One is as though nothing is a miracle. The other is as though everything is a miracle.” ― Albert Einstein
Asking us to start looking for miracles everywhere can seem like a challenging order. Who in this world of struggle and conflict sees miracles all the time? All of us. It’s simply a matter of changing our perspective. Miracles really are around us all the time, as long as we’re willing to get out of our heads and egos long enough to see them–how miraculous could that be?
And along the way, let’s be gentle with ourselves, Warriors!
