Sum this chapter up: Ask, then clear your mind of what the answer will look like and accept what comes… Miracle given.
Ferrini starts out giving a very cool definition that “Every Miracle is a demonstration of the fact that love is stronger than fear.” Our homework for this chapter is to become aware of our fears, our fear based thinking. To our surprise he doesn’t ask us to replace these thoughts with positive, loving ones… no sugar coating… we are to feel them thoroughly and when ready ask God for help. In doing this we recognizing that there is a power greater than the fear and we then ask that our thoughts be changed. His prayer:
“Father, I am willing to change my mind about the situation. Please help me see this, not through the eyes of fear, but as You see it. Help me see this with equal love for myself and all others.”
The Miracle will come when three factors are present that we know that the need is there, we ask sincerely and we are willing to receive it. Here’s the tricky part, the Miracle will be given but we many times ask for a preconceived outcome. This is where the clearing of the mind comes in. Let God to answer the prayer. Accept what happens next even if it doesn’t seem like a Miracle to you. It is the one you need.
