More quotes by Francis of Assisi
Be praised, O my Lord by Brother Wind, By air and cloud and every clime To whom Thou givest sustenance unto their kind.
Francis of Assisi
The world is a great stage on which God displays his many wonders.
Francis of Assisi
I therefore command all my Brothers, those living now and those to come in the future, to venerate the Holy Mother of God, whom we always implore to be our Protectress, to praise her at all times, in all circumstances of life, with all the means in their power and with the greatest devotion and submission.
Francis of Assisi
There is absolutely no man in the whole world who can possess one among you unless he first die.
Francis of Assisi
We have been called to heal wounds, to unite what has fallen away, and to bring home those who have lost their way. Many who seem to us to be children of the Devil will still become Christ's disciples.
Francis of Assisi
May the power of your love, Lord Christ, fiery and sweet as honey, so absorb our hearts as to withdraw them from all that is under heaven. Grant that we may be ready to die for love of your love, as you died for love of our love.
Francis of Assisi
What you are looking for is what is looking.
Francis of Assisi
It is no use walking anywhere to preach unless our walking is our preaching.
Francis of Assisi
Lord, help me to live this day, quietly, easily. To lean upon Thy great strength, trustfully, restfully. To wait for the unfolding of Thy will, patiently, serenely. To meet others, peacefully, joyously. To face tomorrow, confidently, courageously.
Francis of Assisi
What is it that stands higher than words? Action. What is it that stands higher than action? Silence.
Francis of Assisi
Not to hurt our humble brethren is our first duty to them, but to stop there is not enough. We have a higher mission - to be of service to them whenever they require it.
Francis of Assisi
Jesus is happy to come with us, as truth is happy to be spoken, as life to be lived, as light to be lit, as love is to be loved, as joy to be given, as peace to be spread.
Francis of Assisi
God requires that we assist the animals, when they need our help. Each being (human or creature) has the same right of protection.
Francis of Assisi
Do few things but do them well, simple joys are holy.
Francis of Assisi
Our hands imbibe like roots, so i place them on what is beautiful in this world. And I fold them in prayer, and they draw from the heavens light
Francis of Assisi
Lord, make me an instrument of thy peace. Where there is hatred, let me sow love.
Francis of Assisi
It is not fitting, when one is in God's service, to have a gloomy face or a chilling look.
Francis of Assisi
The brave unfortunate are our best acquaintance.
Francis of Assisi
Start by doing what's necessary then do what's possible and suddenly you are doing the impossible.
Francis of Assisi
...In this world I cannot see the Most High Son of God with my own eyes, except for His Most Holy Body and Blood.
Francis of Assisi
