The Spiritual Exercises of St. Ignatius remain an abiding source of
inspiration and wisdom for Christians in the modern day who wish to
be closer oriented to God and his Kingdom. Ignatius of Loyola was
initially a Spanish page in service of a knight, who later became a
knight himself. Ambitious and eager for fame and glory, Loyola was
gravely injured when a cannonball collided with his legs, leaving
his left leg multiple fractures. The surgery of the time was crude;
he would walk again, but with a permanent, pronounced limp. As he
lay convalescing, Loyola experienced a series of visions. Being as
the hospitals of the era were run by religious orders he spent
weeks bedridden, reading the many texts concerning Jesus Christ and
the saints. This experience buoyed and inspired Loyola to lead his
life in the same fashion as the heroic saints; living to spread the
holy word and undertake great pilgrimages.
