The Board of Miracles

The Birth of The Board of Miracles

By Rev. Light

March 3, 2003

Miracles don’t happen. They just are. They are everywhere all the time. They are in the eye of the beholder. They are waiting to be seen and noticed. (Aren’t we all!) And that is good. And that is God. For we are all God’s miracles waiting to be noticed.

A couple of years ago my life was filled with miracles. They followed me wherever I went. I had written dozens of pages of miracle sightings. Then they began happening so often that I no longer had time to record them. Then I got so busy with all my human stuff that I no longer had time to notice them.

Then miracles began fading from my life. Until I no longer could see them. And for me then, miracles ceased to exist. My ink dried up and the pages in my miracle notebook turned empty. And so did my heart and soul. Until much later, specifically, until today, when I began noticing miracles again.

I was riding the subway in Philadelphia. We were approaching City Hall. I was about to get up and walk to the door across from me. I started to rise from my seat, but something made me sit back down. Something inside me made me glance at the lower half of the metal subway door.

Lo and behold...on it, like in a mirror, I noticed the faint profile of a classic Madonna head wrapped in a scarf. I looked away in disbelief. Then I looked back. This time all my doubts disappeared. She was there right in front of me. I clearly saw her mirror image from the waist up. I could have reached out and touched her. Shrouded in her classic robe, she gently cradled the Babe in her folded arms. Just like in those Italian paintings.

I sat there motionless for a moment, gazing at the holy sight. I suddenly understood why the Masters depicted her the way they did. They must have seen this same universal, Cosmic Mother Archetype that I just saw!

The subway door flew open. We walked through the Madonna’s being. Some of us more aware of her presence than others.

I got off at City Hall and began walking toward the 30^th Street train station. For some reason, I began thinking about the Light Switch Board of this web site. I imagined everyone in the world to be a blinking light on my Light Switch Board. I was overcome by a profound sense of connectedness to all of humanity.

I arrived at the train station and walked up to the ticket line. My eyes fell on a sign in the ticket window. “Please wait for a blinking light”, it said. I smiled and thought, “Yes, that is exactly what I am waiting for!”

And so, through the Madonna’s Womb this Board of Miracles was born.

What is The Board of Miracles

The Board of Miracles consists of people who notice, share, advocate and multiply miracles. Our Board here is built to notice those who notice miracles. What we notice, we multiply. What we notice, we become. We spontaneously become miracle workers by simply noticing miracles.

So The Board of Miracles is made up of miracle workers. Wherever they go, they notice, hence multiply and share miracles.

The Board of Miracles is also a space where we notice miracles. We can fill up this space with miraculous stories, such as mine. Remembering always, that miracles belong to those who see them.

The Mission of The Board of Miracles

The primary mission of The Board of Miracles is to notice and multiply miracles of life, soul and healing. And to notice and multiply those who notice and multiply miracles.
