It all began with my great grandfather Vasil.
It was the 1920s. Vasil and his family were living in a remote village in the mountains in Bulgaria. After having four girls he was yearning for a boy. His desire was so big that he made a promise to God, “Please give me a son to light up my home and my heart. And I will give light to your house. I will buy the chandelier for the church.”
Vasil’s prayers were answered! He received a baby boy and gave the church a chandelier. That chandelier is still there and continues to give light in the church some 100 years later.
My father Manol always loved this story. When the Bulgarian church St. Sophia was built in Chicago he wanted to continue the tradition of giving light. He donated the chandelier for the church.
A miracle took place while the chandelier was installed.
It was an early morning. My father and his crew were alone in the church. No one had been there yet to offer prayers and light candles. The men were high up in the air on a ladder working to assemble and set the chandelier in place.
Out of the blue a candle floated in the air. There were two candlesticks that were twisted around each other, both flames burning as one. The candle was floating in the air beside them and stood there the entire time while they were working.
My father was stunned. His overwhelm was so big that he did not say anything. He simply kept working. So did the rest of the crew.
The candle disappeared seamlessly just as it had appeared.
Once the men were back on the ground, my father asked, “Did you see anything?” He was shocked and bewildered once again by their answers. They had all seen the candle!
And now the tradition of giving light continues with me.
Last year, the priest told us that my dad’s chandelier is broken beyond repair and they need to replace it. I immediately knew that now it is my turn to continue the family tradition. And so on Thanksgiving Day I went to the church and gave my donation to make that happen.
Today, the light in St. Sophia shines so brightly.
My great grandfather received the miracle of a son when he gave light. My father received the miracle of the presence of God lighting the way for him when he gave light. And as to my miracle – I have spoken my prayers and now I am allowing my miracle.
Please tell us whether and how long it takes to receive the answer to your prayer. If you tell us now what you prayed for, we could add the power of our thought intention to your own to make it manifest faster.
Maybe later tell us? 🙂
Oh, you are amazing in wanting to support me in my prayers, George! I will definitely tell you later! Please continue to add the power of your thought intentions to my own! That means so much to me. Thank you! Thank you!
What a wonderful story!!!! Thank yuu dear Mira for sharing.

Beautiful and most Powerful story…I believe in miracles and godly manifestations to all who seek to do good and befit the needs and wants of others. The best thing we can do here on this Earth during our sojourn here is to share our joy and be the best we can be to all people and animals we care for personally or meet each day be it a friend or strange.
Raise your vibration to that consciousness that permeates everything and is everything be it God /Jesus Christ/ Buddah The Force, All that is or the Power behind this Cosmos
Thank you for sharing his story… can I share this other story I received yesterday from Annie Kagan… It is so positive and excellent advice and came from her brother
Dear ______….I’ve been stressed out lately. The news is daunting; terror attacks, families fleeing war torn countries, the environmental mess.
In my book, The Afterlife of Billy Fingers, How My Bad-Boy Brother Proved To Me There’s Life After Death, my brother Billy teaches how to better navigate life on planet Earth. Amazingly, Billy began sharing this wisdom with me a few weeks after he died. Two years of our conversations are recorded in our book.
One thing Billy says is;
People spend lots of time on things that make them unhappy. To cultivate joy, pay attention to what you like.
So, with all the disturbance happening on Earth, I made a list of things Billy says can soothe the soul.
SPEND TIME IN NATURE
The light, colors, scents and sounds of the natural world bring pleasure to and heal the senses. Walking in the forest, planting a garden, or simply feeling the warmth of the sun on your face, help you tune to the miracle of creation.
SAY THANK YOU
Many spiritual paths promote the concept of gratitude. Saying “thank you” may be simpler than trying to feel grateful. Saying thank you to all the things that please you, silently or out loud, helps you notice the grace in your life. Thank you is an easy step down the road toward gratitude.
PAUSE FOR BEAUTY
Take time every day to admire something of beauty. Beauty is evocative; it awakens something deep inside and transcends the noise and static of the world. Beauty reminds you of the awe at the heart of life itself.
MAKE LIFE MORE MUSICAL
Singing, dancing and listening to music connects you to the special pleasure of being alive. Have favorite songs on standby to enhance your mood or change it. Some music could be bright and upbeat, some slow and melancholy, some designed for healing. Melody and rhythm turn the ordinary into the magical.
CHANGE YOUR VIEWPOINT
A change in perspective is powerful. According to Quantum physics, the way you see things can actually change them. If something upsets or frightens you, look for what you like about it. When it comes to people, focus on their deep voice, their sparkling eyes, their quick smile, their unique wit. When someone senses positivity coming their way, they may respond in kind.
CELEBRATE THE PURPOSELESS PURPOSE OF LIFE
Joy comes from doing what we love simply for the pleasure of it. Keep a journal, learn to surf, sing in a choir, bake bread, plant a garden, feed the birds. Everything you do doesn’t have to lead to an outcome. The doing can be its own reward.

Mira,
I love your light story and it is such a gift to pass on. Light is a favorite metaphor of mine and I use it frequently in energy work as a healing tool. We are so blessed to live in the light and it is meant to be passed around. In fact, I am still lit up after taking your work shop at the Theosophical Society over the weekend.
Love and Light,
Terry

Oh Mira, what a wonderful story. It reminded me of many stories my grandma told us (children) growing high up in Yugoslavian mountains, totally isolated from civilization.
Keep bringing/shining the light, God knows this world needs it.

Dear Mira ,
Thank you for sharing this inspirational story with us.
I have read your book ..beyond past lives , Dr Wayne Dyer’s …Wshes fulfilled. Anita Moorjani’s….Dying to be me. and many other books including Brian Weiss. I am a 68year old woman and have late in my life learned to look at life in a new way.and I thank you sincerely for this. I am glad I got to know people who teach us living in a newer and brighter angle ,than that we have been brought with up and made to believe…Love is the best of all emotions that the Almighty has bestowed upon us.Thank you from the core of my heart for bringing this out into the light of everyday life. Love you and need people like you for a better world..
Thank you for this beautiful story Mira. I want to hear about your chapter when it is available.
Hey Mira! I’m 24 and I was blessed with finding you and Hay House early in life. I just had a miracle happen to me as well! I’m a musician, and I had a meeting with a big record label at a tiny restaurant. I wasn’t sure if signing a contract was the right thing to do, but I prayed to God for help. I prayed that all would work out. I was two months behind on my rent and eating cans of beans for meals. When I walked into the restaraunt I happened to be caring my saxophone. Two men at a table struck up a conversation with me. One of the men began to tell me that he was launching a big new restaraunt and he needed performers. He began to tell me that a big Hollywood star was his business partner and best friend, and Sir Paul Mcartney and other celebrities would be coming to perform. He listened to my music and instantly felt connected to me. He said, “I will personally write you a check for the money you need”.
The funny thing is, the record executive never even showed up.
I planned one meeting,
And God planned an even better one.
Now I have the right connections, financial backing, and I didn’t sign a contract that definitely would have hurt me.
A true miracle.
Thank you for the light you give the world.
Love,
Daniel Halligan
P.S. I love your healing through past life regression CDs! I would love to meet you some day
