As usual. One person’s opinion and the assurance that what has happened to me was not of the Holy spirit is an assurance that may give you comfort as you reject what I wrote as false, but I know differently.

*****attribute the thing with the image of Mary****

No where did I say that, but as usual without reading and understanding it, I am not surprised you jumped to the wrong conclusion and overlooked huge portions of what I wrote.

I said that I returned home and prayed and studied because I was thoughtful that it was sentimentality that I was feeling and not a true feeling of being where I belonged.

I wrestled with it as I prayed and studied and went to Mass just to see if that feeling was there in a strange church, and it was.

The relevance to seeing the image of the Blessed Mother, Ave Maria was only because I had prayed that God show me if what I was doing was what He wanted me to do.

That image was that sign. I had never seen it before, had no idea it was there and it would be important to me only because of my memories of my Nan-na singing that song.

I know this will not change your opinion of what happened, but reject it for what I said and not for what you think I said. I know what’s what and I know what the Holy Spirit has done for me in my faith and in my life since I opened my heart to Him. That is enough for me.
