Do you know who your patron saint is? Do you have a name saint?
Let me tell you a quick story about my patron saint. I always struggled at school,it caused me a lot of anxiety and even made me depressed because it caused me to feel like a failure. One day I discovered that my patron saint(which means he is the saint for September 18 which is my birthday,) is Saint Jospeh of Cupertino-the patron saint of students! Since I have discovered this small miracle from God I feel like I have been given a personal guardian to help me to cope with my anxieties. Knowing Saint Joe is by my side reaffirms that my schooling and teaching-along with the rest if my lifes actions, are all for the glory of God.
Take it from me, learn about your saint-God does nothing without a great reason!
