Exchanging God's Love For Alms

El Greco: St. Francis and Brother Leo

"In truth I say to you, many nobles and scholars of this world will enter our Order and will consider themselves highly honored to beg for alms....In exchange for the alms that you solicit, you will offer the love of God, since you will say: 'Give us alms for the love of God!' and heaven and earth are nothing when compared to this love."

Saint Francis of Assisi
