In Fratelli Tutti Pope Francis promotes a universal aspiration toward fraternity and social friendship.
For Franciscans today, material poverty is not the greatest concern but rather an acknowledgment that their “poverty of being” is essential.
An adaptation of Clare’s words, Gaze upon Christ, Consider Christ, Contemplate Christ, can be a Franciscan mantra for those wishing to draw closer to God in contemplative prayer.
In recognizing his vocation to live the Gospel, Francis knew that he could no longer identify himself with the wealthy and powerful of his day.
Prayer is defined as a lifting of our hearts and minds to God, and contemplation can be considered the highest form of prayer.
The genius of their spirituality was their recognition that the Gospels could and should be lived by every person.
