My takeaways from this book (Great revelation!!) :
1) The super powerful prayer of ' Veni, Creator Spiritus' (Come, Creator Spirit), which is said to have bought ecstasies and great miracles in the lives of the saints.
2) St Francis of Paola's order of the Minims - When I read about this Saint's life and his miracles,
especially his Order of the Minims, I felt there was a certain call for me, in a way the Lord is prompting me to follow the virtues and goals mentioned by St Francis. I'm sure the Lord will speak to each one from some saint's life, I personally loved this St Francis of Paola's extraordinary and supernatural life.
3) ST. PATRICK'S BREASTPLATE PRAYER: This prayer of St Patrick is yet another powerful prayer which reminds you of St Paul's reference to 'Armor of God' from Ephesians 6:11. It is said that the Christians escaped and were invisible to the then King Laoghaire's assassins when they chanted for the first time the saint's famous "Breastplate" prayer. This prayer calls upon the power of the Trinity, the Incarnation, the angels and all of heaven against every conceivable danger.

Great book about the lives and miracles of the saints! I especially enjoyed the tribute to the Blessed Fr. Solanus Casey who lived in my hometown during his retirement in the 1950's.

Charming and honest look at the Saints. Easy to pick up and put down. Great to read as part of your devotions.
