I love to tell the story,

Religion event by Saint Joseph Catholic Church on Thursday, January 14 2021. The Church commemorates St. While you've likely heard of his association with the 'blessing of the throats,' you might not know of his 'discussions with the wolf.' Father Steve Grunow recounts the legends of St. Blaise's extraordinary spiritual works, the truth to which these tales point, and the pinnacle of his earthly life which was no 'legend' at all: his heroic martyrdom.

It did so much for me;
And that is just the reason
I tell it now to thee.' Another great secret of Paul's success was this. He realized a Divine plan and purpose in his life. He felt that he was 'separated unto the gospel of God' (ver. 1). Unknown to himself, the Divine hand had been moulding his character, drawing out and developing his gifts, from his childhood up. How the various circumstances of his life fitted him for his great life-work! Born and brought up in Tarsus, he there became a Roman citizen, thus receiving civil rights and privileges which were of great service to him afterwards in his mission. There also he came in contact with Greek civilization and culture - an acquaintance useful to him afterwards at Athens and at Corinth. Then, coming to Jerusalem, and brought up at the feet of Gamaliel, he there received a training and a position which were of immense advantage to him in dealing with the Jewish people, his kinsmen according to the flesh. All this process of training and development culminated when one day that Divine hand suddenly arrested his career on the way to Damascus. The light from heaven shone about him then, and shone into his heart. After those days of outward blindness, but inward questioning and growing spiritual vision, the scales fell from his eyes indeed. He saw it all then. Henceforth there was a new meaning and a new purpose in his life. He saw then that he was 'called to be an apostle, separated unto the gospel of God.' He saw the unseen hand. He saw how it had led him. He saw that it was a hand of power - how foolish to resist it! He saw that it was a hand of love, moulding him for high and holy and eternal purposes. From that moment Paul was Christ's. Not as a slave, but as a devoted servant. Not in any sense as a mere machine, but Christ's with all the persuasion and conviction of his mind, with all the love of his heart - separated by his own voluntary act, as he had already been separated by God's purpose, unto the gospel of God. In the seventh verse we see what the message was which Paul took with him wherever he carried the gospel. It is the message which the gospel brings still wherever it finds an entrance. 'Grace to you and peace from God our Father, and the Lord Jesus Christ.' Grace - the favour or mercy of God.

'Ye know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that though he was rich, yet for your sakes he became poor, that ye through his poverty might be rich' (2 Corinthians 8:9). And where the gospel comes with its message of mercy and of love, the result is peace - peace in the conscience, peace in the home, peace in the nation. Such was the character, such were the life and work of St. Paul. He was a servant of Jesus Christ. He went forth as a messenger for Christ, believing that he had been separated unto the gospel of God. And the message which he brought was the message of grace and peace. So may it be with every one of us, if we will only consecrate our lives to God. - C.H.I.
