Birthday Saint

Today it is Saint Scholastica's Feastday!

I found a beautiful litany to her I had never seen...

But here is my personal prayer:

Dearest Patroness,

whose favor with God was such as to bring about a mighty storm, bring about for me, who has loved you since infancy (when the Benedictine sisters in school would give me holy cards with your image), that I may persevere in God's love, allowing Him, whose Infinite Wisdom is unfailing, to guide all of my days.

Amen.
