Today the Church honors Saint Anthony of Padua, the great Franciscan preacher, miracle worker, and Doctor of the Church whose words and witness brought countless people closer to Christ.

In this episode of Saints in a Year, Saul reflects on God's providence, unexpected callings, and the power of sharing the Gospel with courage and conviction.

📖 Scripture

Romans 8:28

"What feels like a setback may be God preparing you for a greater mission."

💬 Thought to Remember

Anthony's dream of becoming a missionary martyr never happened. Instead, God used illness, storms, and unexpected circumstances to make him one of the greatest preachers in Church history.

🙏 Prayer

Lord Jesus, through the example of Saint Anthony of Padua, help us trust Your plans even when life takes unexpected turns. Deepen our love for Scripture, strengthen our faith, and give us the courage to share Your truth with others. May we always seek You above all things.
