The Alms We Beg Are A Sacred Bread




The alms we beg are in fact a scared bread, sanctified by the praise and love of God, since the one who goes begging must begin by saying, "Praised and blessed be the Lord God!" Then they must say, "Give us an alms for the love of the Lord God!"


Saint Francis of Assisi
