One day, like any other day, you open your front door and instead of seeing your familiar neighborhood you see the hustle and bustle of a street in ancient Athens! You would wonder if you were dreaming, perhaps close the door and go back to bed! Or, if you were of an adventurous spirit, you might step through the door and enter into this unknown world.
Instead of Athens, what if it was the world in which you had found your perfect work? What if this door opened into the day that held a brand-new friendship or romance? What if, by walking through this door, you would have a brilliant idea that solved many of your problems?Every door you open can be a door into miracles. A door is often used as a symbol of entering into a new phase of being, a new dimension of consciousness. You might have walked through the same door hundreds, or thousands, of times, but this time you are walking into miracles.
It isn’t the door, of course, that holds the magic, but the person who walks through that door. Turn the handle, peek outside - same old world? Or are there sparkles around the edges that let you know that something has changed?
We think we know how our lives will go, but we never do, really. Our lives can change in a heartbeat. We meet someone and fall in love, or someone we love dies, in that instant our lives have changed. From hope to tragedy, tragedy to hope - only a brief moment can separate these. Miracles happen the same way - your life is changed from one moment to the next.
An ordinary life, if there is such a thing, is usually one of familiar experiences and expectations. A life of miracles calls for a different approach. We must be willing to have things shake and settle around us and still keep our balance.
It can feel like the ‘blackout’ for a scene change at a play. What are they doing? What’s going on? Then the lights go on to reveal a completely different setting. Oh, now we see! The stage is set for something new!In a life of miracles, we often sit in the dark like that, wondering what is going on. Miracles often take place ‘off stage’ and only reveal themselves at the proper time. How unbearable it can feel to sit in the dark! In a play the audience is required to stay where it is, not rush onstage to interfere with the process. It is the same with walking into miracles. We must stay where we are, waiting in fear, or anticipation, until the lights go on!
Walking into a miracle has a way of shaking things up in our mind and in our lives. This is because we aren’t used to them. How much more fun it would be if we did expect them - if we were constantly watching for them. Then when our lives began to shake, or seem to be falling apart, we would think, “Oh, a miracle is taking shape!” We would walk through the door into miracles with a sigh of relief and a smile towards our fears as we leave them behind.
Now let’s take it one step further. What we call miracles are in truth the normal workings of Life when we have stopped interfering. When we stop pushing and pulling and let Spirit flow through us into our lives, we open the way for a new harmony. We call this flow ‘miracles’, but when we understand it better, we simply call it ‘Life’. And every door opens to it.
