Saint of the Day: St.Joan of Arc

Saint Joan of Arc, the Maid of Lorraine, feast day is today, she was sent by the "King of Heaven"to help those in need. St. Joan of Arc, bravery and courage shown throughout her life, her motto was, ""It is God Who commands it!" All she did, she did following God's commands. Even her last words were about her "King," she said, "Jesus, Jesus, Jesus!" She is not only one of my favorite saints but she is also an inspiration to many, her life, her legacy, her mission!

Saint Joan of Arc, is not only one of my favorite saints, but she is also the favorite saint, of St. Therese, she wrote many poems on her, in her canticle to her she said:

 "For Joan is simply, Lord, Your work of art

What on this timid Maid did you endow?

A warrior’s soul you gave – a burning heart;

You wished to place Your laurels on her brow"

Saint Joan of Arc, fought for what she believed in she never backed down, she truly had a "Warrior's soul!"

Let us Pray to this Warrior, 

Prayer for the Intercession of St. Joan of arc

Dear Sweet Patron Saint,

I implore you in the name of God to intercede on my behalf and guide me. Help me to be strong when people are against me and question my belief in God. Help me to stand by my faith and my decisions concerning my faith. I wish to do only God's will, and I beg of you, O Patron Saint, to help keep me on His true path, and guide me in His will. I need friends now, more than ever before, and I choose God as my first and foremost best friend, above all others. But I also choose you as a close and special friend to relate to and to talk to. Please counsel me by any means necessary that is in the will of God to do.

Please let me have the wisdom and understanding to receive his message and the patience and virtue to listen so that I may understand his word.

St. Joan, Pray for us. 

Amen.

Ta, Ta for Now!
