I am not a saint, though I strive to be as close to the historical Jesus as possible, within my personal limitations. I take part in daily practices of being quiet, listening and following the guidance I receive. I carry out my daily activities while viewing everything as sacred and being grateful for my many gifts. As far as being 75 and disabled, I accept them and wish it was different. If I do these things I feel connected all the time — which I depend on. Doing these things also allows me to access and make use of the power of love/God. “You can be a saint, if you want to be one. It's as simple as that. Only you must remember, ALL THE TIME, that GOD makes saints, not we: we just do what we are told. But in order to do what we are told, we must hear what is said, and in order to hear we must listen, and in order to listen, we must be quiet - not only with our tongues, but interiorly, in our minds and hearts.” )author, an anonymous priest or brother(
