St. Francis of Assisi - November 13

Perfect Obedience

"If you choose to suffer persecution rather than choose to be separated from your brothers and sisters, you truly stand firm in perfect obedience, for you are laying down your life for them."   --St. Francis, Admonition 3

Very few Christians in America are actually persecuted, but we certainly can be maligned or made to feel like outcasts, if we take a stand on what we know to be True.  Francis says if we stick by those who are being truly persecuted our life might be at risk, but we can take joy in our perfect obedience.
