Expectations create a breeding ground for miracles – John Di Lemme.

Of course this quote is referring to right expectations. If you allow yourself to expect negative things then you are preparing for the very opposite of a miracle.

Expectation is closely related to both focus and belief (or faith). The dictionary defines expectation as “belief about (or mental picture of) the future”.

I like that – the mental picture. Those mental pictures that you and I have in our minds are our imaginations.

Thoughts and imaginations are filtered by the mental structure or mindset that you and I have created over the years by our thoughts, actions and decisions. You may find that you need to recreate that mental structure in your life.

So what is that breeding ground for miracles in our lives?
Miracles can only happen within the atmosphere of faith. This is the breeding ground.

Faith is cultivated in your mind by 3 basic things:

What you hear:
For miracles to come into your life you need to prepare for them. This means preparing your mind and your life by creating that atmosphere of faith.

In the Bible, in Romans 10:17 it says that faith comes by hearing and hearing by the Word of God. Yes listening to God’s Word brings and cultivates faith.

Listening to and reading good motivational and inspirational books and recordings also contribute to building up your faith. This is because all wholesome motivational concepts are based in the principals found in the Bible. These are simply expressed in different words and ways by each author.

What you focus on:
Yours and my mind are working flat out (that means very fast all day long.

The key is the make sure that YOU are making conscious decisions as to what your mind is focusing on. (If you don’t it will run wild like an untamed animal).

When you spend time every day listening to and reading the Bible and good motivational material, you are training your mind to create the atmosphere of faith in your life.

What you expect:
Write notes in your journal every day about what you are learning and how you plan on applying it to your life. This will also train your mind to create mental pictures that will expect the best.

You cannot expect good things to come into your life if you are constantly listening to negative conversations or watching violence, horror and defeated characters on TV or the movies. These things will not create the atmosphere for miracles.

Are you busy creating the atmosphere for miracles in your life?
