Were you expecting to see the names of your favorite Saints on this list? Or, perhaps, maybe you thought that it would be a list of Saints you’ve never heard of?

Your screen isn’t broken. There’s not one Saint that could be included on this list.
Every one of the Saints experienced suffering, trials, and temptation. What makes the Saints different, is how they chose to respond to each hardship and inclination to sin.

Instead of despair, they chose hope. Instead of running from God, they ran to Him. Instead of death, they chose life in Christ.

Ask the Saints to intercede for you today and to help you with the battles you are facing. They’ve been there too.

Perseverance in Trial

Consider it all joy, my brothers, when you encounter various trials, for you know that the testing of your faith produces perseverance. And let perseverance be perfect, so that you may be perfect and complete, lacking in nothing. But if any of you lacks wisdom,he should ask God who gives to all generously and ungrudgingly, and he will be given it.But he should ask in faith, not doubting, for the one who doubts is like a wave of the sea that is driven and tossed about by the wind. -James 1:2-6

"Whoever has not experienced temptation cannot enter into the Kingdom of Heaven. Without temptations no-one can be saved." 


-St Anthony the Great
