Tip #41: Believe in Miracles
Miracles happen to those who believe in them.”
-Bernard Berenson
We live in a world surrounded by science and technology. We are told to believe in those things that can be seen and proven. But, what about those events that occur outside of reasonable explanation? How do doctors, scientists, and scholars define and explain those outstanding or unusual things that could not, or should not, happen? Flukes? Accidents? Fate? Mistakes?
Now, recall a time when something unexplainable happened. Maybe it was a small thing, like finding forgotten money in a coat pocket when you were broke. Perhaps it was a big thing, like surviving a terrible automobile accident. Whatever their size or seriousness, inexplicable things do happen. These things could be written off as merely random occurrences. Why not believe in miracles and acknowledge the influence of a higher power? With this perspective, you are being sent a message and are rewarded with a second chance. Maybe the found money will encourage you to create a budget and stick to it. Perhaps the near-miss accident will cause you to reevaluate your life and priorities. Accidents happen, miracles are granted.

Embrace the unexplainable in your life and be grateful for the miracles!
