Earlier, I posted a thread entitled “Photos: Is this a Divine Mercy Miracle?” A CAF member said that the rays coming down on the image of Jesus was due to a “natural sun effect.”

Take a look at this: on another Divine Mercy Sunday in 2013, WHILE a mass was being said at the Divine Mercy Shrine in the Philippines, a rainbow appeared directly over the head of the statue of the Divine Mercy image of Jesus. Divine timing, right?


So what do you think?
 
If the sun is out behind you, and there is rain in front of you, a rainbow is a natural phenomenon, not a miracle. The placing of the end of the rainbow is sheer coincidence.

These sorts of “miracles” don’t impress me in the slightest. If you want to impress me with miracles, show me someone who was blind and is now seeing, someone who was deaf and is now hearing, someone who was confined to a bed and is now walking around, or someone who was clinically dead and is now alive.

No doubt if you saw any of these possible miracles you cite, you would find new ground on which to disbelieve in them. Faith is not a matter of scientific proof, nor even ultimately of reason. It is a gift afforded us through the grace of God. If your heart is not open to receive the gift of faith, no amount of miracles, spurious or otherwise, will give it to you.
 
I have been a devotee of the Divine Mercy for many years. For eight years, I have religiously prayed the Divine Mercy Chaplet every single day, and the good Lord has truly blessed me. I don’t need more miracles to believe, I have seen them in my life, but in my opinion, it’s always good to see the world with a child-like wonder, to be always on the watch on how God mysteriously works in our lives, and just BELIEVE. I have NOTHING to lose and EVERYTHING to gain. If my faith (or anyone’s) is somehow deepened upon seeing the aforementioned phenomenon, will you dare say it’s a bad thing? After all, Jesus said in the Bible:

" I assure you that unless you change and become like children, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven".

This is my humble opinion. I rest my case and won’t argue anymore.

Oh, I believe in Jesus Christ and in the teachings of the Catholic Church. What I don’t believe in is the attaching of the label “miraculous” to what are actually natural phenomena. That kind of labeling cheapens the true miracles that Jesus performed.
