Counsels of St. Francis de Sales

Live + Jesus!

"Imperfections must die with us, a little each day. Dear imperfections, they force us to acknowledge our misery, give us practice in humility, selflessness, patience, and watchfulness; yet, notwithstanding, God looks at the preparation of our heart and sees that it is perfect."

"Let us stay at our Lord's feet and remember 'little peddler-little pack' by practicing the ordinary virtues which are better suited to walking downhill than in climbing: patience, forbearance toward our neighbor, service of others, humility, gentleness of heart, affability, tolerance of our own imperfections."




St. Francis de Sales by Bro. Benedict Schmitz, OSFS, Ingolstadt, Germany
