St. Francis - Compassion and Mystic Union
St. Francis was one of the greatest mystics is all of Christendom. He was the son of a wealthy merchant who embraced the life of poverty in imitation of the life of Jesus. His body bore the wounds of Christ, the stigmata granted by God to his holiest of servants. They say that animals would follow him and sit at his feet, and that birds came to rest in trees where he took shelter from the sun. His canticle to the sun and moon and the "Prayer of Saint Francis" are among the deepest of all Christian Reflections.
"Lord, make me an instrument of your peace.
Where there is hatred, let me sow love; ...
where there is despair, hope;
where there is darkness, light;
and where there is sadness, joy.
Divine Master, grant that I may not so much seek
to be consoled as to console ..."
