13th February - Saint Giles Mary of Saint Joseph
Saint Giles Mary of Saint Joseph is living proof of Saint Mother Teresa’s famous quote: “Not all of us can do great things. But we can do small things with great love.”
People often become arrogant and power hungry when they forget their own sinfulness and ignore the gifts God has given to other people. Giles Mary had a healthy sense of his own sinfulness—not paralyzing but not superficial either. He invited men and women to recognize their own gifts and to live out their dignity as people made in God’s divine image. Knowing someone like Giles Mary can help us on our own spiritual journey.
