The saint is the person who loves Jesus on a personal level - loves Him enough to want to be like Him in everyday life - loves him enough to take on some of His loveable characteristics.
"The saint is the person who loves Jesus on a personal level - loves Him enough to want to be like Him in everyday life - loves him enough to take on some of His loveable characteristics." - Mother Angelica | DEVOTION TO THE HOLY FACE Compiled by Mary Frances Lester. The devotion to the Passion of Our Lord Jesus Christ and particularly to His Holy Face is one of the oldest in the Christian tradition. This venerable devotion was practiced by such great saints as St. Augustine of Hippo, St. Bernard of Clairvaux, St. Gertrude the Great, St. Mechtilde, St. Edmund, St. Bonaventure and St. Therese of Lisieux. Through the efforts of Sr. Mary of St. Peter, Ven. Leo DuPont and countless others, this devotion has become one of the most beloved, and remains one of the most needed in our time.
