Matthew 28:16-20
There seem to be a lot of people on the western side of the Atlantic Ocean posting things about ST Patrick today. Most of the posts mention green clothing or show green beer. I wonder what St Patrick himsel would think of this. My guess is that he would be highly amused.
Being a patron Saint of one of the countries of the United Kingdom I had to learn a brief biography of him as part of my Brownie tests. There was no mention of green clothing and even less of green beer. We did learn that he used a shamrock leaf to demonstrate the Holy Trinity to those to whom he was sharing the Good News.
Today I will think on St Patrick, his love for the people whom he served in Ireland and his desire to share God's love.
