Miracles are taking place in everyone's life. The very fact we are alive
is a great miracle.
***I do agree with you: the Universe is itself a miracle, our existence is a
miracle,
every event of our life is a miracle. St.Augustine would speak of the
Universe as a real miracle, to be admired.
But I am discussing the miracles in the strict sense, for example, the
Eucharistic miracles. These miracles are rare.
We may not have witnessed them ourselves.
We lay too much emphasis on saints and Mary, leaving the Heavenly Father
without any importance and praises.
***The Church has not forgotten God, nor Mary, the Mother of God-Man, Jesus
of Nazareth, nor the Saints.
Everything has its own rightful place.
Not much importance is given to the Bible.
***Bible is in the centre of the Liturgy. The Word of God is the Word Jesus.
Our prayers are rote from memory.
***There are innumerous ways of praying. Memorization of prayers may help
us,
particularly in the difficult dry moments.
Regards.
