Have you ever been close to giving up?  Does life seem like too much to handle?  Consider St. Jude, the patron saint of lost causes.

Many of us feel like giving up at some point or another in our lives, but Christ reminds us that He has already overcome this world, and reassures us that we can overcome temptation and despair through the power of His Name.  The earliest leaders of the church, the apostles of Christ, were instrumental in spreading the good news of the Gospel to the entire world and teaching others that we can always rely on Him.

While we should not worship these human beings, we can look to them and learn from their example as they looked to their Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.  Jude himself was a sibling of Jesus, and so was able to share from firsthand experience the power of perseverance in His Name.

Our Saint Jude

Brief Biography

After the death and resurrection of Jesus, Saint Jude, the brother of James the Less and a cousin of Christ, traveled throughout Mesopotamia for a period of ten years, preaching and converting many to Christianity.

He died a martyr’s death — as tradition tells us, he was clubbed to death and his head was then shattered with a broad ax. Sometime after his death, Jude’s body was brought to Rome and placed in a crypt in Saint Peter’s Basilica.

Few things tell more about a man than the way in which a man speaks of himself. Few things are more revealing than the titles by which a man wishes to be known. Saint Jude identifies himself in his epistle in two ways: (1) “SERVANT OF JESUS CHRIST”,and (2) “BROTHER OF JAMES”.

1) Servant of Jesus Christ

Saint Jude regarded himself as having one goal, one distinction in life, and this was to be permanently committed to the service of Jesus Christ. This permanent commitment ultimately rewarded Jude with the crown of martyrdom.

When Jude introduces himself, he also addresses himself to his fellow Christians who also are called, loved, and kept by Jesus Christ. Now a person can be called to an office, a
