Just look at the world around us. Is it a coincidence
that the sun rose so beautifully today that it filled countless hearts
and souls with wonder, love, peace, and joy? It seemed more like a miracle
to me.
Is it a coincidence that life developed so intelligently and perfectly
on this world? Is it coincidences that birds know to fly south each
winter, that the seasons change and flowers bloom each spring, and that
thousands upon thousands of different plants and animals live, grow,
and thrive here?
It seems to me more like a hundred million miracles created by a glorious, joyous mind and a loving hand.
Look at your own lives as well. Is it a coincidence that
you accidentally walked into the wrong room and met the person who changed
your life and blessed you with love?
Is it a coincidence that you followed
a silent urge to turn off the road before you had to and later learned
you avoided a deadly accident because of it?
Is it a coincidence that you were on the verge of despair
and then heard a song, or read a line, or got a call that lifted your
spirits and strengthened your soul once again?
Are they all coincidences or are
they all little miracles created by God and His angels to guide you, protect
you and help you to ever greater love, joy, and goodness in your life?
Embrace the miracles in your life then. Embrace the miracle of life. Rejoice
in these miracles and use them to choose and share ever more love and
joy with others. Celebrate in the knowledge that you are loved, cared
for, and watched over by God and remember that Life is full of
Miracles not coincidences. However, be open to the possibility that coincidences do exist.
