Sometimes when John Paul emerged from such interludes of deep prayer, he didn't seem refreshed, but was instead preoccupied and burdened with the weight of information that others were not privy to. On one such occasion in the wilderness, a witness reported that he appeared to be "shaken to the core" and immediately requested that he descend from the mountain to return to his lodging. Within hours, the Iraqi army invaded Kuwait, and the Gulf War began.

Ping!

Even though it is still a few days before being declared a saint, JPII is a SAINT in my eyes.
