hello,

Ready to Manifesto Some Miracles?

tell me more

Grab a copy of my lastest book "Miracles Manifested" and enter to win a trip to Italy valued at $7000!

One of the chapters in my new book “Miracles Manifested” is entitled “Share your Light”. In fact, I am so obsessed with the concept of LIGHT that my editor sent me a document highlighting the millions of places I used the word throughout the manuscript. She called it my echo word along with FEEL, and I spent yesterday looking up synonyms to replace it.

In the Old Testament, it says…  “I the L-RD have called unto you in righteousness, and have taken hold of your hand, and submitted you as the people’s covenant, as a light unto the nations.”Isaiah 42:6

So as I was walking along the riverbed in Italy this morning and I composed this quick poem and sent it to my editor Alice Peck,  as a joke, asking if it was acceptable to use the word light so many times in the same paragraph.

Maybe we’ll even include it in the book. Either way I wanted to share it with you as a reminder that you are magnificent and a child of Creation.

You are made of light
Light creates everything
Light is the force and language of our Creator
Light is the messenger of life
Matter is just a reflection of that light
And you can use light to manifest anything, including miracles
G-d is light… You are light observing light
You are G-d

So stop judging others. G-d gave us a code to live by. A simple set of rules called “The 10 Commandments” and these laws help us honor and respect our fellow man.⠀

One of them is to love thy neighbor. He wants each human to be kind to one another. Make your time on this earth and your life count. Begin to see your neighbor as a part of you.⠀

You have a Divine mission placed into your soul. To fulfill this mission you need to find a way to share your light with others to illuminate the darkness that plagues our world. You have a choice. You can always choose love and peace over everything else.⠀

In order to tap into the Divine energy that creates miracles, you will not only have to embrace the existence of a Source that is pure love, but you will also need to begin to behave and act in a way that resembles G-d.⠀

He doesn’t use force when he transforms a tiny pit in to a towering plum tree. He doesn’t pick favorites amongst His children. He is generous with all creation. And so should you be. Share your blessings with the world.
