It implies that every Christian gets knocked off his horse, blinded by light, speaks directly to Jesus, and then changes history by following Him.<\/p>\n<p>And it\u2019s true. We each do all of those things.<\/p>\n<p>You can see how this happens by looking at how it happened for St. Elizabeth Ann Seton.<\/p>\n<p><strong>First:<\/strong> <strong>Get knocked off your horse<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>St. Paul met Christ when he was far from home, and suffered a severe trauma, getting knocked to the ground, probably right off his horse, and then going suddenly blind.<\/p>\n<p>St. Elizabeth had a \u201ctravel conversion\u201d as well. She sailed from New York to Italy in the last-ditch hope that a warmer climate would cure her husband\u2019s tuberculosis. Unfortunately, he died shortly upon arrival. Anyone who\u2019s lost a husband, wife, parent, or child will know just how much like being knocked off your horse that experience is.<\/p>\n<p>The same thing happens in our own conversions to Christ, though.<\/p>\n<p>We are settled in our comfortable routines without an active faith in Christ and without a full life of the sacraments, but then something happens. Maybe it\u2019s when we move to a new part of the country, or get a new job, or find a new circle of friends. Maybe it happens when we lose someone or something that was important to us. Maybe it happens more interiorly.<\/p>\n<p>But when we are knocked from our safe and comfortable place and are finally open, we hear the voice of Christ, and we answer. As St. Elizabeth Ann put it, when we are at our weakest, \u201cFaith lifts the staggering soul on one side, Hope supports it on the other, Experience says, \u2018It must be,\u2019 and love says \u2018Let it be.\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n<p>We find solid rock at last.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Second: Find God in the Church<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><u><a href=\"https:\/\/bible.usccb.org\/bible\/acts\/9\">St. Paul \u201cset out for Damascus\u201d<\/a><\/u> to capture Christians to \u201cbring back to Jerusalem in chains for punishment.\u201d When he landed on the ground and was blinded by the light of Christ, Jesus confronted him: \u201cSaul, Saul, why are you persecuting me?\u201d He was implying that the Church and His very body are one.<\/p>\n<p>To prove how true that is, after speaking to Paul, Jesus withdrew, and the Church took over.<\/p>\n<p>First, Ananias visited him and \u201claying his hands on him, he said, \u2018Saul, my brother, the Lord has sent me \u2026 that you may regain your sight and be filled with the Holy Spirit.\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Then, Paul \u201cstayed some days with the disciples in Damascus.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>In other words, Paul\u2019s conversion wasn\u2019t just between him and Jesus. It was between him and the Church.<\/p>\n<p>It was the same with Mother Seton. \u201cI assure you my becoming Catholic was a very simple consequence of going to a Catholic country,\u201d she wrote. There she discovered the ancient form of Christianity in the Catholic Church. God spoke to her in her soul \u2014 she and her husband already had a deep faith \u2014 but to find the truth, she needed others.<\/p>\n<p>So did Paul. So do we.<\/p>\n<p>It is always through a community of believers that we discover Jesus. Perhaps we find them online first, or in books \u2014 but eventually we have to find them in the Church, which exists for this purpose: To be Jesus Christ to the world.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Third: Find God in sufferings that don\u2019t end<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Then, St. Paul and St. Elizabeth Ann lived happily ever after, right?<\/p>\n<p>Not at all.<\/p>\n<p>We often make a crucial error about our conversion: We think of it as the end of a process, not the beginning of one. We think that when we chose Christ, we finally got on the Yellow Brick Road that coasts to heaven.<\/p>\n<p>Paul knew this error\u2014and he worked hard to combat it. After a career spent proclaiming Christ crucified, and after a humiliating experience of trying and failing to get God to take away his suffering, he <u><a href=\"https:\/\/www.biblegateway.com\/passage\/?search=2+Corinthians+12%3A9-10&amp;version=RSVCE\">said<\/a><\/u> \u201cI am content with weaknesses, insults, hardships, persecutions, and calamities; for when I am weak, then I am strong.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>St. Elizabeth Ann Seton discovered the same thing in her own life of hardship and suffering.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe are never strong enough to bear our cross. It is the cross which carries us,\u201d she said. \u201cThe weakest become strong by its virtue.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The cross never goes away. It\u2019s a hard lesson to learn in our own lives, but everyone has to learn it.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The fourth and final step: Final perseverance<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Which brings us to the final stage of conversion: finishing well. The Catechism<u><a href=\"http:\/\/www.scborromeo.org\/ccc\/para\/2016.htm\"> calls<\/a><\/u> this \u201cfinal perseverance.\u201d And Jesus <u><a href=\"https:\/\/www.biblegateway.com\/passage\/?search=Matthew+10%3A22&amp;version=RSVCE\">put it<\/a><\/u> this way: \u201cHe who endures to the end will be saved.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>St. Paul <u><a href=\"https:\/\/www.biblegateway.com\/passage\/?search=PHilippians+2%3A24&amp;version=RSVCE\">compared<\/a><\/u> final perseverance to a race. \u201cDo you not know that in a race all the runners compete, but only one receives the prize? So run that you may obtain it.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>If a race sounds daunting, you may prefer the motto so many have taken from Elizabeth Ann Seton: \u201cHazard yet forward.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s a matter of putting one foot in front of the other and, come what may, heading to heaven through the joys and sorrows of life.<\/p>\n<p><strong>TOM HOOPES<\/strong>,&nbsp;<em>autor m\u00e1s reciente de El Rosario de San Juan Pablo II, es escritor residente en el Benedictine College de Kansas, donde imparte clases.
