A shorty

Sorry folks it has probably been one of the most busy weeks of my life this past week, so Ive only got a little to share tonight.  Ill return to form this week some time after I recover, Im sure you have all been there.

Now even though Ill keep this short its going to be packed with some amazing stuff.  Click the hyperlinks to read more about God reveals Himself through His people, us, in some incredible ways.

I had the great fortune to learn about an incredible soul named Audrey Santo this weekend.  Please check out the link which contains more info about her life and amazing miracles that had happened around her.

Im not one to rely on the perceptable signs from God or miraculous happenings, but its great to kick back and say dang God, you can do some pretty sweet stuff!!! It makes you take a step back and think about the one who you follow and Im so thankful that Im following Him.  Again, not because of the miracles but because of the love.  God is not going to show you a miracle to make you a believer, there is no free choice in that, He wants your fiat, no not your car, your yes!  He will show the believers the miracles, not to increase their love for Him, but to bolster their faith, kinda like a tetanus titer but your arm isnt sore when its over ;)

Here are some other links to miraculous happenings.

Bodies that havent decayed

St. Clare of Montefalco is a must read, thanks for the tip, tipster!

Every time a priest celebrates mass a miracle occurs when he consecrates the bread wine and they become the real body and blood of Jesus Christ.  But in His infinite wisdom and grace, God has  given us many Eucharistic miracles where the hosts actually bleed or scab over or become bits of flesh. You can research these as there are some quite famous ones.

This is a video of a modern day saint, St. Padre Pio.  He was an incredible human being who had the stigmata or the wounds of Christ, notice the gloves.  He could bilocate, he was often found in his room shivering.  Soldiers during WWII were said to have seen him on the wintery fields ministering to people all the while he was in Italy.  His confession lines were blocks long as he would help the faithful confess all their sins.  While participating in the sacrament of confession, he would withhold absolution because he was able to read the souls of the penitent and knew when and what they were holding back and could tell them when, how, and who they were with when committing the sin.

Take them for what they are worth and pray about this.  The Lord is not trying to convince us of anything we already know.  He only wants us to see His great love for us.  Everything in the Catholic Church flows to and from the Eucharist because it truly is Jesus Christ.  Our daily bread takes on a whole new meaning.....
