ABOUT THIS SAINT/PIECE:
I don’t even know where to begin with this fiery saint! In all honesty, I'm incredibly intimidated to write anything about her because she did SO much in her life. You would need to read an entire book about this woman of many talents, but in summary:
*Doctor of the Church (1 of the 4 women Doctors)
*Abbess
*Visionary
*Writer (One of her most well-known books is called "Scivias" and includes details about her visions, which were both prophetic and apocalyptic)
*Poet
*Artist
*Knowledgeable Herbalist
*Baker
*Musician
*Composer
*Protested against heresies, and bravely confronted those who supported antipopes
*She also made up her own language just for fun...
*Created one of the first musicals.
I love Saint Hildegard specifically because she took great care to not let any talent go to waste. And when she did use them, she did so for the greater Glory of God and the betterment of his beautiful Church here on earth.
In the words of Pope Benedict XVI:
“Let us always invoke the Holy Spirit, so that he may inspire in the Church holy and courageous women like Saint Hildegard of Bingen who, developing the gifts they have received from God, make their own special and valuable contribution to the spiritual development of our communities and of the Church in our time.”
Saint Hildegard of Bingen, patron saint of musicians, writers, (and I'm sure so much more!), pray for us!
