Augustine’s prayer as a young man. “Lord let me be saved.....later”. He enjoyed his youth much before he became a saint. My kind of guy.
Inigo or Ignatius Loyola, founder of the Jesuit order of priests, also was a Spanish man prone to debauchery and rogue behavior. His mother died when he was young, and he was one of thirteen kids. At 17 he enlisted in the military and was noted for his womanizing and duels. He once dueled and ended the life of a Moor in a dispute over the divinity of Christ. Eventually he was injured badly in his legs at Pamplona. In his recovery he read extensively religious books and scripture and changed his ways. He forever walked with a pronounced limp, and his devotion for the Blessed Mother is widely expressed even today.
