The Admonitionss XI – Let No One Be Corrupted By The Evil of Another

ADMONITIONS X I – LET NO ONE BE CORRUPTED BY THE EVIL OF ANOTHER
St. Francis of Assisi

Nothing should displease a servant of God except sin. And no matter how another person may sin, if a servant of God becomes disturbed and angry because of this and not because of charity, he is storing up guilt for himself. (Rom2:5) That servant of God who does not become angry or disturbed at anyone lives correctly without anything of his own.  Blessed is the one for whom nothing remains except for him to return to Caesar what is Caesar’s and to God what is God’s. (Mt 22:21)
