Catholic Saints

All truth is from God, and God’s truth is that we are to love God, and loving God will show us how to love our neighbor.

The practical conclusion of the first teaching of St. Francis is that if we listen and pray, God will show us what we are to do with our lives.

Everything is thereby holy and worthy of care, and reverence, and a song of God’s praise.

St. Bonaventure said of his holy father Francis that he was a true teacher because he learned the truth of God’s revelation.

Francis not only repaired the little house of San Damiano, but the larger house where God dwells, Earth itself.
