Love ThoseWho Persecute And Rebuke And Slander You

Guard against all pride, vanity, envy, avarice, the cares and worry of this world, detraction and complaining. And if you do not have book-learning, do not be eager to acquire it, but pursue instead what you should desire above all else, namely, to have the Spirit of the Lord and his grace working in you, to pray always with purity of heart and to have humility, patience in persecution and in infirmity, and to love those who persecute and rebuke and slander you, because the Lord says, "Love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you" (Matthew 5:44). "Blessed are those who are persecuted in the cause of uprightness: the kingdom of Heaven is theirs" (Matthew 5:10). "Anyone who stands firm to the end will be saved" (Matthew 10:22).

Saint Francis of Assisi
Rule of 1223

  2. Thank you for your candor.

    I immediately prayed the Rosary for you as soon as I received your comment.

    If you were honest, you would post your comment as a disclaimer over the top of your Website, possibly a large Banner or something on the "Catholic Home" home page.

    The peace of Christ!
