When you think back on your life, who are the people who God has placed in front of you as examples of faith? Who are the people who inspire you to walk more closely with God? How do they inspire you to keep going on in the journey of faith?
I firmly believe God puts Saint in our lives to draw them closer to him. Some are those who have gone on to Glory. Folks like Sylvia, who always had time for me at her home and would talk to me about how God has always been present with her, in a way that opened up my eyes to more deeply see God's presence in my now life. Or Janice, who was by far one of my favorite people to visit, as she had stories that filled my heart with such joy about the blessings of God's love.
But some folks are Saints right here with us now, who invite us into deeper communion with the Divine. People like Michele, who would just call to check to see how I was doing and had the eyes of her heart open to the movement of God. Or Mrs. Stevenson, who speaks words of prophesy over people in a mighty way.
And we are the Saints for other people, when we faithfully walk with Jesus.
Let us surround ourselves with the Saints who are calling us on as we travel this journey. And may we share our faith with others, encouraging them as well. Let us lift up the name of God together!
