September 12 - Saint Guy of Anderlecht

 

From an early age he had two great loves: the church and the poor. He was a humble sacristan of the church and at night he cared for the poor. A merchant from Brussels heard of him and offered Guy a job as an associate so he could have more money to help the poor. Guy had no desire of leaving the church but it seemed like a good idea to get more resources for the poor. However, he later repented having left what he considered his place and vocation.

Do you ever do things that you are not convinced about in order to attain what you believe is a positive result? Have you ever been mistaken in doing this?
