A miracle is a decision to shift one’s perception from the world of the ego to the world of God which is unconditional love as the Universalists understood and taught. This decision involves cooperation, collaboration, and mutuality. This rapport taps into the eternal not the realm of time. Falling in love means that time stands still and has no meaning any longer. The individual experiences what psychologists call a “flow state”. In a spiritual frame of reference it is called a “mystical” experience.
In Alcoholic Anonymous it is suggested, in step eleven, that we improve our conscious contact with God through prayer and meditation. The eleventh step suggests that we perform miracles and make our mind one with God. Having experienced the eleventh step we then naturally move into the twelfth step which is to carry the message of God’s unconditional love to others.
In Unitarian Universalism we covenant together to affirm and promote the inherent worth and dignity of every person. When we join with others to love each other our transcendent yearning is fulfilled as we all become one with our Transcendent source.
Today, it is suggested in miracle principle nineteen that we make our minds one with God by cooperating with God’s Sonship which exists far beyond the ego’s idol of time.
