I mean to be one too....

       I sing a song of the saints of God, 

            patient and brave and true, 

            who toiled and fought and lived and died 

            for the Lord they loved and knew. 

            And one was a doctor, and one was a queen, 

            and one was a shepherdess on the green; 

            they were all of them saints of God, and I mean, 

            God helping, to be one too.   

                                               Lesiba Scott (1898--1987)

Careful...handle with care! 

I was raised on that beloved hymn, text and images for sainthood. 

Now my world has opened and I see saints as those who say what they

believe about Jesus Christ by what they do....and not necessarily confined to the 

stereotype of the church.  Then I saw this image...of the saint feeding the saint.
