Canonization of St. Josemaria Escriva

Today is the 19th anniversary of the canonization of Saint Josemaria in 2002. John Paul II and a massive crowd of 300 thousand faithful. 500 from Canada. The Pope pronounced very solemn words, the text of the canonization decree:  "In honor of the Blessed and Undivided Trinity, for the uplifting of Catholic faith and the increase of Christian life, by the authority of our Lord Jesus Christ and that of the Holy Apostles Peter and Paul and our own, after careful deliberation, having called frequently upon God's help, and with the advice of many of our brother Bishops, We declare and define Blessed Josemaría Escrivá de Balaguer to be a Saint, and We inscribe his name in the catalogue of the Saints, ordaining that, throughout the universal Church, he be devoutly honored among the Saints. In the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit." Here is how all that works out in our life, to see if the very purpose of the Canonization gels with our life.
