Happy St. Patrick's Day
For those who aren't aware, Saint Patrick was a real man who was born around 389 A.D. During his life, he became a priest and bishop in Ireland, where he saved countless souls - most were pagan at the time.
From St. Patrick's Confession:
It was not any grace in me, but God who conquereth in me, and He resisted them all, so that I came to the heathen of Ireland to preach the Gospel and to bear insults from unbelievers, to hear the reproach of my going abroad and to endure many persecutions even unto bonds, the while that I was surrendering my liberty as a man of free condition for the profit of others. And if I should be found worthy, I am ready to give even my life for His name's sake unfalteringly and gladly, and there (in Ireland) I desire to spend it until I die, if our Lord should grant it to me.
Here is the story of St. Patrick's life. May the Lord work through all of us as He did through St. Patrick.
God bless,
Jay
