Twice jaded, once removed @jadedjaggoff - Tumblr Blog

i love when random tumblr users find my blog and go through it liking and reblogging everything in a frenzy, it feels like i’ve been cultivating a nice backyard with a lovely birdbath and feeder and i’ve glanced out the window to see a bird going absolutely wild with it

Actually, my favorite St. Patrick story is once, when he was baptizing a young prince, he needed to put aside his staff but there was nobody around to hold it. So he jammed it deep into the dirt, and went through the ceremony.

When he finished the baptism he pulled his staff out of the ground and was shocked when he noticed blood on it. Then he realized, to his horror, that he had stabbed it straight through the prince’s foot. The prince had just stood there quietly the whole time, with St. Patrick’s staff sticking through his bare foot.

St. Patrick asked, aghast, “Why didn’t you say something???”

The prince, surprised, said, “I thought it was part of the baptism. If Christ had his hands and feet pierced for me, is it not right that I should have my foot pierced for Him?”

St. Patrick was struck by the young man’s devotion, but informed him that Christianity did not demand that its adherents mutilate themselves.
