It is our Father in Heaven we should be praying to in the name of Jesus Christ. He blesses us, we do not bless ourselves and Mary does not bless us either. We do not need to look for signs in a tree stump, we need to live the gospel of Jeseus Christ and serve others, not spend our time looking for signs.

It is really amazing how these virgin mary sightings attract so many people. People find the virgin mary on a water stain for a building, a cheeeto, a potato chip, a vegetable or fruit, etc... Are these folks just constantly looking for something to believe in or what? I just don't get it. Especially this photo, what?????
