What is a Saint?

We are all saints in the making….the path

If you read stories of some of the most celebrated saints you will find that most were just ordinary people like you and I.  Some saints were young, innocent and uneducated.  Some saints were young women who refused to live their life married but rather wanted to commit themselves to a life of serving the poor.  Some saints actually were not what we would look at as very good people.  Some were thieves, murderers, held hate and vengeance in their hearts.  Some saints didn’t know how to read or write.  Some were born to poverty and some were born to royalty.

So what makes a saint?  Having faith and trust in God and loving the Creator with all your mind, body, heart and soul.  It is this love that fuels your every thought, word, and action in your life.  This unconditional love that God has for you is shared with everyone you meet and it is living this life of love for God and one another that makes a saint.  

Following the path of our Creators light and love is the only tool we need.  Love alchemizes everything.

We are all saints in the making……

With Love
