St. Francis of Assisi - October 31

Let Us Begin

"Though St. Francis had to moderate his early rigor because of his illness, he continued to say:  'My brothers and sisters, let us begin to serve the Lord God, for up till now we have done little, or nothing.'" --Celano, First Life, 103

There is always more that can be done for the Lord.  We must never "rest on our laurels" when it comes to serving God.
