It hit me pretty hard when I learned this. I dont think I ever aspired to be a Saint. Not because I didnt want to - but because I just didnt even think it applied to someone like me. So I aim for little things. Therese aimed for the top - and she hit it. There is a sports saying about you can only achieve the goals you set, and you should make your ceiling high, etc etc.
Our focus should be on God first and foremost.

If only all Christians really desired to become a saint. And understood what that entailed!
ReplyDeleteThank you Victor and Noreen.

I'm thinking I need to raise my ceiling!
God Bless.
I had never even heard that we should aspire to be a saint until well into my adulthood. I should raise the bar higher for me too!
