Do you believe in Miracles?
Do you think miracles are all rainbows and unicorns and happily ever afters in the movies 👸🌈
But I’d love to share my experience of miracles, because for me they are not just the huge dramatic life changing moments. Sometimes a miracle is the tiniest shift that creates a huge impact or ripple effect in our lives
It can be
A softening
A door opening
A conversation changing
Someone becoming more vulnerable
Someone finally feeling seen and heard
A wall coming down
A moment of understanding where there once was defensiveness
Seeing the goodness in someone’s intentions where there once was hurt or misunderstanding
A relationship feeling safer
More honesty
More openness
More compassion
A boundary being respected
A feeling inside of us moving when we thought it never could
What is a miracle?
For me, a miracle is when something shifts in your life that your head said could never happen, but your heart still held faith for anyway
I believe in a higher power. I believe in something greater than me, whether you call that the Universe, God, Spirit, or something else entirely. I believe there is something walking beside us through the crazy rollercoaster of life. Something supporting us to learn, grow and expand into who we are here to become
And I believe this higher power hears us. I believe it feels our energy too
When I open myself to miracles, I am opening myself to possibility. I am saying:
Please help me
Please guide me
Please support me
Please bring me what is meant for my growth and evolution
And I also believe my energy matters
I try not to move through life believing:
“This will never change”
“That person will never grow”
“There’s no way this could happen”
Because I believe our thoughts, feelings and energy are constantly communicating something to the Universe/God
As frustrating as that can sometimes be, I believe the energy we hold matters. Not in a “pretend everything is positive” kind of way, because life is real and hard and messy sometimes. I’m not talking about denying pain, hurt or reality. I’m talking about the difference between being honest about where we are and completely closing ourselves off to possibility
Because when we close ourselves off completely, we can also close ourselves off to miracle
For me, believing in miracles comes from a shift in perspective
It’s a deep knowing that people and situations always have the capacity to change
I don’t believe miracles can fully unfold when we are trying to control every outcome or are attached to things needing to happen a certain way for us to feel okay. Miracles require openness. Space. Surrender. Trust. They ask us to loosen our grip on how we think life should unfold and stay open to possibility instead. Not forcing. Not controlling. Just allowing space for something new to emerge
It means leaving a little space for the impossible to become possible
I know this is not always easy. My hope in you reading this today is simply that maybe you open yourself, even just a tiny bit, to the energy of a miracle
Recently I’ve experienced A LOT of miracles in my life
One of the deepest desires in my heart is for us to experience relationships that feel connected, safe, honest and flowing. Not perfect. Not without challenge. But relationships where people can communicate openly, express when something doesn’t feel good, hold boundaries with love, repair after hurt, and still feel deeply connected to one another through it all
I care deeply not only about my own relationships and connections with others, but also about the relationships and connections people have with each other too
There is something so healing to me about watching people move from disconnection into understanding. From defensiveness into openness. From separation into deeper connection
If the whole world could experience relationships that felt more conscious, loving and connected, I genuinely think it would change everything. And honestly, it would make me feel deeply fulfilled
I have watched miracles unfold in my own life with my husband, with my sister, with my dad and my mum, with my children, within my extended family and with my friends too… pretty much everyone I hold dear to me
There were moments I genuinely thought certain dynamics in my life may never shift. Conversations I avoided. Patterns that felt deeply ingrained. Hurt that felt too hard or too complicated to move through
And yet slowly, through honesty, openness, reflection and difficult conversations, I watched things soften
I watched people become more vulnerable. I watched myself become more vulnerable too
I watched moments of deeper understanding emerge where there once felt like distance, frustration or disconnection
Not because everything became perfect. But because people became more open
How did this all happen?
Through openness
Through deep inner reflection
Through being willing to take risks
Through difficult conversations
Through reconnecting to what really matters
Through believing that these kinds of relationships are actually possible and available to us
And also through trusting in something greater than myself. Trusting in Universe/God. Trusting my intuition. Trusting that quiet inner knowing that keeps guiding me, even when my logical mind can’t yet see the outcome
None of this has been perfect or easy
But I truly believe miracles can happen when people stay open enough, courageous enough and connected enough to allow something new to emerge
I invite you to be curious …
I invite you to be curious …
Where in your life might there be space for a miracle?
What tiny shift might create a ripple effect you never expected?
And where might life be asking you to stay just a little more open?
