The saints weren’t perfect. They were human so they sinned while they were alive, just like the rest of us. The important thing was that they didn’t stop trying and they went to confession whenever they needed to.:heaven:
 
Read St. Therese of Lisieux’s “Story of a Soul.” She struggled with oversensitivity and a tendency towards selfishness, and scruples, among other things. It’s very inspiring to see how she overcame these ordinary things that many of us struggle with daily.

What about after they converted? They didn’t struggle anymore?

I have the same question. Did they just suddenly become holy after conversion? Do they ever talk about their struggles AFTER conversion? Cause it’s sure hard for me! :o
 
Thank you everyone for all your replies! 🙂

I’m hoping to find and read each of the books recommended. I must admit the book, Saints Behaving Badly, is at the top of my list! I’m hoping I have the opportunity to pick it up this week.

Thank You

God Bless
