What Would St. Brigit Do? 5 Practical Ways to Make Your World Better ☘️#ireland #story #saint

If you’re anxious, discouraged, sad, it's always a good idea to turn to a strong and heartening example. Irish people have turned to the saints for literally centuries for reasons spiritual and religious, but also PRACTICAL and TACTICAL – as stories of the saints offer examples of how to live, how to solve problems, and how to be just and compassionate. Let’s turn to St. Brigit today or any time we need a lift and ask, “What would SHE do?” Today, I’ll share 5 practical things based on the stories and traditions about her. Question: Which of Brigit’s actions will you use to make your world warmer, safer, and happier? WORDS Coiglim an tine seo mar chloiglinn Críost cáidh; Muire ar mhullach an tí, agus Bríd ina lár; An t-ochtar ainglí is tréine i gCathair na nGrás Ag cumhdach an tí seo ‘s a mhuintir a thabhairt slán. I save this fire as noble Christ saves; Mary on top of the house and Bríd at its center; The eight strongest angels in Heaven preserving this house and keeping its people safe.
