Your comparison fails. Evidence for any reported Catholic miracle must be thoroughly investigated by a panel of scientists, theologians, and medical doctors before it is certified by the local bishop as acceptable for Catholic belief. The overwhelming majority of reported miracles are never declared acceptable. Genuine Catholic miracles are uncommon, but they do occur and the empirical results of the scientific investigations are thoroughly documented.
Happily, miracles from 2000 or more years ago can’t be investigated at all.
That and the man in my Sunday School, who we prayed for who was in the hospital whose abdominal wound just would not close and heal....I can only describe a sensation of “power” that went out from that room.
The man involved reported at that same hour his abdomen (in 1996)began literally bulging and a nasty purilence burst open. He was cleaned up and rebandaged...in a day the wound had closed and he was out of the hospital a few days later. Last I heard, 7 years later, there were no further issues with his Crohns disease(which necessitated the surgery) or the surgical wound.
What I also remember was that 2 days after the prayer, the person involved felt very strong urgings to call certain of those who had prayed for him even though he had not known who was there or that we had even prayed for him at that time. This person and I were not even friends(we weren’t enemies, we were just not social acquaintances) so it was unusual that he would even want to talk to me. He had called me right at work, getting my number from my wife and told me of the day his wound suddenly “exploded” then started healing within the hour. Now he knew that I was an RN so perhaps he just wanted my perspective...yet I told him we had prayed for him and that it seemed miraculous regarding his symptoms, so we just praised the Lord over the whole business.
I’ve seen many abdominal surgeries including Crohns related, but I’d never before seen or heard of postoperative Crohns patients’ abdomens becoming Jiffy Pop swollen within a matter of two or three minutes,then bursting out volcanically with black purilence through the opening(the wound was not fully dehisced, just not fully closing,as it was decided that the wound should heal by third surgical intention), then rapidly healed in a day or two; then, over 7 years, never having had trouble with Crohns disease again. (Yes the scar was still there...why not after all?)
Yes even in this “day of small things”, God will still do miracles...I think he does them more frequently than we realize!
