No, it’s not about me or Manday! : ) Ever since I ‘wrote’ Angel of The Maya I have been asked lots of questions about how a super model can possibly morph into Ste. Therese, but more on that some other time. This is a recommendation from a friend of ours about the book.
I read a wonderful book on the plane rides by a business man turned Jesuit priest called: “My Life with the Saints.” It is outstanding. It tells the story of this man's spiritual development and saints who mean much to him. Stes. Therese and Bernadette were featured, so it would be a good book for the Paris trip (pilgrimage to the shrines of France in September). I finally can understand the role of the saints and got so much valuable information for my personal life. Many of the stories centered on the need to be yourself, not someone else—flaws and all.
It seemed like every story had a message for me about pride, about following God's call, about helping others, about opening a holy book for a message—That one was like a wink from God!, and about being OK with being confused, and how God works more through the flaws in people than the strengths.
Note: If you are at all interested in accompanying me and a few others from here on the pilgrimage to visit the Shrines of France, why not check it out? I know there is space for one now, because someone needs a female roommate, but not sure how many spaces are left??? Let me know if you need the e-address or name of our travel agent.
