St. Paul’s Conversion - by Pope Benedict XVI, Sept. 3, 2008:
“The dazzling radiance of the Risen Christ blinds him; thus what was his inner reality is also outwardly apparent, his blindness to the truth, to the light that is Christ….St. Paul was not transformed by a thought but by an event, by the irresistible presence of the Risen One whom subsequently he would never be able to doubt, so powerful had been the evidence of the event, of this encounter….” (General Audience, Pope Benedict XVI, September 3, 2008)

What has Our Lady of Emmitsburg said on this great saint's feast day?
“Rejoice that you belong to God, and never let go of that treasure. Guard it well, and you will be called ‘chosen’. For your ‘fiat’ and unconditional surrendering will gain you the knowledge and the wisdom to live continuously in His Most Divine Will through His Grace.” (OLOE Private 01-25-06)
