The many saints each show in their own way how great God’s love for us is. During their lives they had complete trust in Jesus, and because of this they became an example for us. Saints pray for us in heaven, and we can ask for their prayer.
Take St. Lidwina of Schiedam, St. Rita of Cascia and St. Anthony of Padua, for example. Each of these saints serves as an example for us, each in his or her own way. Their faith and devotion to God allowed them to put other people’s interests above their own. In this way they demonstrated great love for their neighbour.
