PRAY FOR US.
May the most important thing of all for Saint Paul also be the most important thing for us:
The most important of all to [Paul] ... was that he knew himself to be loved by Christ. Enjoying this love, he considered himself happier than anyone else; were he without it, it would be no satisfaction to be the friend of principalities and powers. He preferred to be thus loved and the least of all, or even to be among the damned, than to be without that love and be among the great and honored.
(Saint John Chrysostom, Office of Readings, January 25, Conversion of Paul. Apostle)
SAINT PAUL THE APOSTLE,
SAINT JOSEPH,
PRAY FOR US.
