Feast Of St. Blaise 2017 – First Friday

Who needs miracles?  Today’s sermon explains that God could have accomplished all things directly but He knows that due to our fallen human nature, we need miracles to help us believe.  So, He sometimes uses secondary causes like the saints in their incorruptible forms, or sacramentals like the blessing of throats with candles today, or even the forces of Nature to prove His Divinity and the Truth of His words.  But the point is it is God who is working – sometimes behind the scenes and sometimes in person, like at the Marriage Feast of Cana or the healing of the Leper, to get His point across.  So, in answer to the question of who needs miracles, the answer is us, His people.
