St Jude Thaddeus

Just selected St. Jude as my patron for everything.

Yes, everything.

So, how do I justify making the Patron of Desperate Causes and Things Almost Despaired Of my patron for everything?

Because I've had to face it and admit that when looking within myself, I have cause for desperation. St. Jude reminds me that the ONLY way I can do anything good, the sole hope I have for improvement, is God. Outside of Him, everything is a desperate cause, that I ought to almost despair of.

Catholic Doors has St. Jude novenas here, here, here, and here.
