Where do you find true holiness? It is difficult, because the real saints are hidden and humble and holy. Instead of looking for the hidden holy ones we often fall for the celebrity saints, says Dwight Longenecker
“If you were to tell them they were a saint they would laugh and tell you to keep searching.” If you had the sense and discernment to see the saint next to you– “the ordinary person who perseveres–the little person who serves others–the plain Jane who takes life easily and simply loves people, then you would learn again what true holiness really is.”
