Day 21 of Franciscan Month. Read and/or listen to the Word of God today; pray with and meditate on the Gospels. St. Francis strove to live the Gospel and ordered his followers to do the same. In her Rule, St. Clare also instructed the sisters “to observe the Holy Gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ.” What is God asking of you today? How are you following the Gospel?
