For Charity And Alms We Will Receive A Reward

We must be charitable, and humble, and give alms, because they wash the stains of sin from our souls. We lose everything which we leave behind us in this world; we can bring with us only the right to a reward for our charity and the alms we have given. For these we shall receive a reward, a just retribution from God.

Saint Francis of Assisi
LETTER TO ALL THE FAITHFUL
