It can be a wonderful encouragement to read about a Saintly person, someone who was always willing to go the extra mile, and give even when it hurts.
Perhaps, in today's world, we meet such people, and we don't call them saints and yet, they are so loving and caring, and able and willing to help, when help is needed.
This got me thinking about the idea of sainthood, and how acceptable it would be to become a saint. No talk of halos or spiritual images, just a wonderful common sense to know how to care for others, and show the world that goodness and love will always triumph!
We are shortly coming into Valentine's day, and already the shops are full of cards decorated with beautiful red hearts, and messages of love, and who wouldn't want to receive a Valentine card? Emotionally, we love to be loved.
On another thought, there are teams of people, nurses and doctors showing the very best kind of love by saving lives. Perhaps we could send them Valentine cards?
Love is so wonderful, not dependent on emotions or feelings, yet totally open to caring for others.
