Today the Traditional Catholic Church celebrates the Feast of Holy, Saint Paul, the first Hermit & Confessor. He was born in Upper Egypt, about the year 230?, he became an orphan at the age of fifteen. After this, he became very rich and highly educated. Fearing the many tortures going on during Decians persecutions then, he didn't want to endanger his Catholic faith, he then retired into a remote village. Then his pagan brother in-law denounced him, Saint Paul, rather than remain where his faith was in danger, entered into the desert, trusting that God would help his needs. His confidence was rewarded, for on the spot of which Providence led him, he found fruit of the palm tree for food, and its leaves for clothing, and water of a spring for drink. His first plan was to return to the world when the persecution was over, but then with his prayers and penance, he remained the rest of his life there, ninety years, in penance, prayer, and contemplation. God revealed his existence to Saint Antony, who sought him for three days. Seeing a thirsty she wolf run through an opening in the rocks, Antony followed her to look for water, and found Paul. They knew each other at once, and praised God together. When St. Antony visited him, a raven brought him food, and St. Paul said, “See how good God is! For sixty years this bird has brought me food every day, now thou art come, Christ has doubled the provision for His servants.” After having passed the night in prayer, at the dawn of day, Paul told Antony that he was about to die, and asked to be buried in the cloak given to Antony by St. Athanasius. Antony hastened to fetch it, and on his way back saw Paul rise to Heaven in glory. He found his dead body kneeling as if in prayer, and two lions came and dug his grave. His Faithful pass away to Heaven was about the year 341.
Reflection: We shall never repent of having trusted in God, for He cannot fail those who lean on Him; nor shall we ever trust in ourselves without being deceived.
