I too can relate to the different experiences that people have mentioned. Last year, sometime around this time when I was searching and did not know where to begin that I stumbled on this site (my humming bird moment) and visit this site everyday. I also enjoy watching the mass on this site on days that I do not go to church. Thank you all for your excellent contributions!

Very well put, Dan. Like you and your he other commenters, I too have had those moments – though not as many as you, yet mine were quite serious – a sinking boat at night in Lake Erie as a young teen, a near plane crash into a woods on my first solo flight, and 9-11. In each case, I felt an invisible protecting arm.

And for reminding me of the many moments in my life that I’ve been saved or reminded to reflect on what I’m called to do.
And yes, it’s why I visit this website. God bless!

Still we proclaim the Gospel everyday at Mass and while I do not go every day I still proclaim the scriptures of the day.

My first experience in Bible study was in a parochial high school. Our instructor[ Father Moran] used notes from a seminary course and took the King James version of the Bible and proved many Catholic doctrine. One such proof was transubstantiation from John 6 and Luke 22 & 24. I still feel insecure at times because at 71 I am still learning. That’s what keeps me young.

As you mentioned we have that humming bird moment in our lives and it comes from many directions.
We just have to proclaim the Gospel and never feel insecure because all of us are still learning.
God Bless
