“But Ananias replied ‘Lord, I have heard from many sources about this man, what evil things he has done to your holy ones in Jerusalem. And here he has authority from chief priests to imprison all who call upon your name.’ But the Lord said to him ‘Go, for this man is a chosen instrument of mine.” Acts 9:13-15. Bishop Barron said, “Never, ever, think that you can’t be forgiven and sent on mission. Look what Jesus did with Saul.”

Let us pray, Holy Lord, we are greatly blessed by the wisdom and courage of St. Paul, but we also thank Youfor his example. Paul was persecuting the Church, imprisoning, allowing murder, and yet You chose him. You made of him a great saint. Through the intercession of St. Paul, may we too become your saints. Amen. “Let your light shine!!” Be blessed. Larry.
