Looking for Miracles
We
all like miracles, I think. Miracles
speak of victory, of conquering.
Miracles speak of defeating the odds.
We
all like miracles.
What
if I showed you another slant on miracles?
Consider this.
What
if the miracle happened when you and I had the courage to start. What if the miracle happened at the beginning
of the journey? I love that.
There
is a quote in my files …
“a journey of a thousand miles starts with a single step”.
And
it is so.
Often
times, the first step is the most difficult of all. Ask any recovering addict. Ask anyone the morning after surgery. I remember my first morning walk after heart
surgery. I walked a half-a hallway. It was only 30 or 40 feet or so, but it was a
start.
And
those first steps led me to my miracle of recovery and improvement.
Are
you facing a challenge? Are you in need
of a miracle?
Perhaps
your miracle is waiting for your first efforts, your first twitches of a muscle
that moves your leg off the bed over to the side and down to the floor. Maybe your miracle begins with a phone call
or a letter to an acquaintance that begins restoring your relationship.
Have
the courage to start.
This is
my
morning
reflection.
