Ep. 83: A saint is someone who knows how much God loves them

Saints aren’t perfect super-human beings who wear halos. Saints are people who know how much God loves them.

To know that fully means you live without demands on others for time, attention, gifts and constant reminders that you are loved. You are loved by the Source of all Love. It’s a radical, extravagant love that completely fills you up. Saints can see God hidden in the rest of us.

You don’t have to have supernatural powers to be a saint or to be martyred. It doesn’t mean you are above being human. It means you are fully human and also connected to the Divine being that you truly are, that we all are.
