A Miracle Does Nothing...

"The miracle does nothing. All it does is undo." T-28.I.1:1-2

Many people, including Course students, and even teachers think that miracles are about exchanging illusions. In other words, if they have an experience they judge as bad, for them, a miracle would be that the experience or circumstances would change for a "good" one. Yet, according to the Course, all that a miracle does is remove all illusions from our mind so that we can experience the Truth of who we really are. Replacing one illusion, i.e. bad circumstance, for another illusion, i.e good circumstance simply keeps the illusion in place, and in that sense delaying us from having the direct experience of our oneness with God.

We do not ask for a miracle, we simply surrender our thoughts to the Holy Spirit to undo our ego, and in due time, we will experience a miracle, also known as correction of thought. That's how simple the process is. All we need remember is that, as the Course states: "I need do nothing." T-18.VII
