When Preaching, Do Not Conceal The Vices Of The People

T




When blessed Francis preached, he did not conceal the vices of the people when they publicly offended God or neighbor. But the Lord gave him such great grace that all those who heard or saw him had only fear and veneration for him because of the riches of the gifts he had received from God. Likewise, even when he reprimanded them, they were ashamed, but they were also edified; sometimes this was even more motive for him to pray to God for them with greater fervor, and they were converted to the Lord.
