Again, as anticipated, I just had guidance from Blessed St. Anthony of Padua in finding something.

This from an Orthodox Christian giving testimony.

1. sheesh

don't leave us in suspense....WHAT was it?

[sprinkleeninow]

12. It was one diamond earring. The diamond from my mom's engagement ring circa 1940's.

I made it into an earring in the late sixties and have worn it since then. Yes, I remove it to brush it and make it sparkly again.

It's very sentimental for me. My dad reposed one morning in front of me and mom.

And yes, Orthodox Christians do wear some material adornments. It's the inward life of Christ in us that projects outwardly as we have being. That is of more importance than mb sporting a dour face and ankle length dress. My husband is a reader and he wears an ankle length riasson as required. I wear 'prairie' skirts and long fashionable dresses for fun.

This is the umpteenth time this earring fell out. And each and every time St. Anthony assisted.

This is one of innumerable times he found things for me. Each and every time!

Believe or no.

God is Glorified in His Saints!

2. Glad to hear your prayer worked.

15. Appreciate that. I was 'compelled' to give testimony again.

17. I'm also glad that you posted this

I had not thought of using this forum to give testimony in this forum. St. Jude has helped me in the past and I often turn to him. I plan to use this forum to thank him for his assistance.

18. A lovely gesture which I feel is inclusive in 'discussion'.

"God is Glorified in His Saints!"

8. Hurr hurr

Now stick to the topic.

[sprinkleeninow]

13. God love you, but that's frivolous. 🙃

5. Why do saints want publicity?

Are they bored, underemployed or just want attention?

[shenmue]

6. They glorify God

If you're not interested in that, maybe don't post in this section.

11. +1. Some safe haven groups note that status at the top of subject.

Perhaps Catholicism and Orthodox Christianity (Group) should begin doing so as well.

14. The Sainted seek nothing in the way of admiration, fame, etc.

Their selfless lives account for them being beatified.

They have lived a life way contrary to many. Stripping themselves of earthly cares and materialism in order to acquire the Spirit of Peace.

16. What a great way of phrasing it

I will use it in the future.

19. Practicing Eastern Orthodox Christianity to the best of my ability, I have an example,

St. Seraphim of Sarov who said, "Acquire the Spirit of Peace, and those around you will be saved."

So I used his words in part for my reply.
