Great blog Jason. Thanks for the words of Saint Mother Theodore Guerin to feast on today.
I so appreciate this mail—–hope to hear more about Mother Theodore.
Yesterday was such a Divine Providence day for me. I have been praying for God to increase my Faith and Trust. I went to a grocery store that I rarely go too, and a young man said, Grandma, I love you—it was my grandson who I haven’t seen for a long time and he and his wife and two children were there too. He was holding our 18th great-grandchild that I haven’t seen Lincoln is only four weeks old It was Divine Providence moment!!!!. God has always taken care of my husband and me even when our one son died (leukemia) Rob was 21yrs old. God has blessed us more then I can count.
We are so lucky to continue to have the wisdom of Saint Mother Theodore, which is germane to any age. Thank you, Jason, for reminding us of that humble wisdom.
Thank you for sharing these timeless words of wisdom from Saint Mother Theodore Guerin. Her reflections on humility, such as “Pray, be humble, be charitable, and God’s blessing will be with you,” resonate deeply and serve as a guiding light for all. In a world that often values recognition and achievement, her teachings remind us of the strength found in humility and the peace that comes with it. This post beautifully encapsulates the essence of living a life grounded in simplicity and grace.
