God plays no favorites but gives His grace and love to everyone who is faithful
and trustworthy in keeping His commandments of justice and love. You can see
this in the roster of the lives of the thousands of Saints enumerated in the
Catholic Church or other Christian groups.
The Saints are people who were earnestly dedicated to a life of prayer,
sacrifice and service to God Almighty whom God favored with His many signs and
marvels that were constant proof of their fidelity to God and His Church.
Surely you can read many lives of Saints, especially those recognized in many of
our Catholic Churches. Most surely there are also many books or booklets of the
lives of Saints. The Church has promoted such collections based on history as
example for many of our people who may be inspired by the Lives of Saints since
they come from all walks of life or professions in the world aside from the
many members of the clergy or religious congregations of men or women.
This only goes to show that sanctity is open to all people sincerely seeking
for it.
