A Warning To Those Who Insult You And Refuse To Give Alms

If people insult you and refuse to give you alms, you should thank God for it, because you will be honored before the judgement seat of our Lord Jesus Christ for these insults. The shame will be imputed to those who cause it, not to those who suffer it. Alms are an inheritance and a right which is due to the poor because our Lord Jesus Christ acquired this inheritance for us.

Saint Francis of Assisi
The Rule of 1221
Chapter 9
