Saints aren’t people who escape from the real world, living detached from the struggles of life. To become a Saint is to become profoundly human. It’s to plunge into God’s original design for humanity. It’s to feel what God feels for this world, empowering us to align our actions with his heart. It’s to embrace God’s nature and to step into the fullness of our new creation reality.
