“The Eucharist there is no need for discernment for me”

Nor for me. But stories do. No offense. And there are people who would, I am concerned, either use or abuse the Blessed Sacrament for what could be their own ends. For example, Julia Kim raises the hair on the back of my neck. Not because of any alleged Eucharistic Miracle, but because I see her using them to advance her”career” as a seer.

Maybe I am wrong with what I see, but I know I won’t be wrong letting the Church evaluate before either accepting something with Catholic Faith.

I think God allows this so people who doubt see that it is truly the Body, Blood, Soul and Divinity of our Lord Jesus Christ.

I don’t generally follow seers and their messages anymore. We have the Mass, the Sacraments and the Rosary which is where our focus should be at.

You and me both, Mark. I’m a life-long Catholic, 12 years of Catholic education, and the nuns taught us not to use the word “miracle” carelessly. To me, a miracle is something NO EXPERT can prove was natural rather than supernatural.

It concerns me deeply when Catholics accept rumors as a true miracle. It makes the Church look less than dependable. And I think it harms the Church rather than enhance it.

I DO believe in miracles, but only when the Church proclaims them. In this case, it has said it was a natural occurrence.
