' Miracles '...

Miracles honor you because you are lovable.

They dispel illusions about yourself

and perceive the light in you.

They thus atone for your errors

by freeing you from your nightmares.

By releasing your mind

from the imprisonment of your illusions,

they restore your sanity.

A major contribution of miracles

is their strength in releasing you

from your false sense of isolation,

deprivation and lack.

Miracles arise from a miraculous state of mind,

or a state of miracle-readiness.

The miracle is a learning device

that lessens the need for time.

It establishes an out-of-pattern time interval

not under the usual laws of time.

In this sense it is timeless.

The miracle makes no distinction

among degrees of misperception.

It is a device for perception correction,

effective quite apart from either the degree

or the direction of the error.
