Friends of the Rosary,
St. Clare (1194-1253), the sister of St. Francis of Assisi, whose feast day we celebrated yesterday, made poverty the basis of her life, as taught by St. Francis.
Clare desired to be an imitator of the poverty of Christ.
Scripture shows how precious poverty is.
Christ was poor. He had no house wherein to be born, no house wherein to die, no deathbed.
He said, “The foxes have dens and the birds of the air have nests; but the Son of Man has nowhere to lay His head” (Matt. 3:20).
We Christians can be moderate and frugal, and with the intercession of St. Clare, find the way to the spirit of Christian poverty.
Ave Maria!
Jesus, I Trust In You!
Come, Holy Spirit, come!
To Jesus through Mary!
Here I am, Lord; I come to do your will.
Please give us the grace to respond with joy!
