Frases de Francisco de Asís

Francisco de Asís es un santo italiano, diácono, y fundador de la Orden Franciscana, de una segunda orden conocida como Hermanas Clarisas y una tercera conocida como tercera orden seglar, todas surgidas bajo la autoridad de la Iglesia católica en la Edad Media.

De ser hijo de un rico comerciante de la ciudad en su juventud, pasó a vivir bajo la más estricta pobreza y observancia de los Evangelios. En Egipto, intentó infructuosamente la conversión de los musulmanes al cristianismo. Su vida religiosa fue austera y simple, por lo que animaba a sus seguidores a hacerlo de igual manera. Tal forma de vivir no fue aceptada por algunos de los nuevos miembros de la orden mientras ésta crecía; aun así, Francisco no fue reticente a una reorganización. Es el primer caso conocido en la historia de estigmatizaciones visibles y externas. Fue canonizado por la Iglesia católica en 1228, y su festividad se celebra el 4 de octubre. Es conocido también como il poverello d'Assisi .

Francisco de Asís: Frases en inglés

“Lord, make me an instrument of Thy peace.
Where there is hatred, let me sow love;
Where there is injury, pardon;
Where there is doubt, faith;
Where there is despair, hope;
Where there is darkness, light;
Where there is sadness, joy.

O Divine Master,
Grant that I may not so much seek
To be consoled as to console,
To be understood as to understand,
To be loved, as to love;
For it is in giving that we receive;
It is in pardoning that we are pardoned;
It is in dying to self that we are born to Eternal Life.
Amen.”

Widely known as The Prayer of St. Francis, it is not found in Esser's authoritative collection of Francis's writings.
[Fr. Kajetan, Esser, OFM, ed., Opuscula Sancti Patris Francisci Assisiensis, Rome, Grottaferrata, 1978]. Additionally there is no record of this prayer before the twentieth century.
[Fr. Regis J., Armstrong, OFM, Francis and Clare: The Complete Works, New York, Paulist Press, 1982, 10, 0-8091-2446-7]. Dr. Christian Renoux of the University of Orleans in France traces the origin of the prayer to an anonymous 1912 contributor to La Clochette, a publication of the Holy Mass League in Paris. It was not until 1927 that it was attributed to St. Francis.
