What A Man Is Before God, That He Is And No More

Francis used to say the Son of God descended from the sublimity of the Father's bosom to share our misery and become our Lord and Teacher, in order to teach us humility by word and example. Therefore, as Christ's true disciple, he was careful to preserve a low opinion of himself and appear worthless in the eyes of others, keeping in mind the words of the supreme Teacher..."What a man is before God, that he is and no more."

Saint Francis of Assisi
Bonaventure, Major Life
CHAPTER VI
