Miracle … to quote a dictionary meaning (any amazing or wonderful occurrence, a marvellous event manifesting a supernatural act of a divine agent) would be a routine beginning. But in true sense, to me, it is next to hope in terms of hierarchy, and hope, should be as strong as it could be for a miracle to materialise.
There is this wonderful list of things I came across in one of the blogs I follow regularly. This list, of course is like things to do type, but with a hint to make yourself little closer to what is know as ‘perfect’. One of the thing that really interested me was the line that said “Never deprive someone of hope; it might be all that they have”. It is so right, isn’t it?
Hoping for things to go in the way they should go, hoping that governments of the world would sweep away poverty from the face of The Earth, hoping that bureaucrats are not just bureaucrats, and hoping for everything that makes you want a miracle.
But how can we hope for miracle when our hope is not as strong as it could be. Miracle needs strong hope to materialise ... I said this before. Strong hope needs a relentless and indefatigable effort that metamorphosis into hope. This hope will definitely lead to a miracle. Merely hoping for miracle by offering to Him will lead nowhere (I’m not atheist, I fear HIM). Like one of The Hindu article says He is “Bound by Love”, to get rid of poverty don’t offer tolas of gold instead use it to uplift lives ... just an example to quote, and to get rid of other worries of the world ... “where there is a will there is a way”, not a new one though.
So the hierarchy goes like this:
relentless and indefatigable effort → strong hope → miracle.
The bottom line:
Work to make your hope a miracle.
