O Jesus! meek and humble of heart, Hear me. From the desire of being esteemed, Deliver me, Jesus. From the desire of being loved... From the desire of being extolled ... From the desire of being honored ... From the desire of being praised ... From the desire of being preferred to others... From the desire of being consulted ... From the desire of being approved ... If some of our brothers and sisters love Virgin Mary, respect their beliefs, love is so much needed in this world.

@ExTraCt634 The Lord Yeshua said "Many who are last will be first, and many who are first will be last", he also said "Look at the birds of the air; they do not sow or reap or store away in barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not much more valuable than they?"

Also he said "Jesus answered, "If you want to be perfect, go, sell your possessions and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven. Then come, follow me."

I saw this film in the late 70's & found it profound & spiritually moving. St Francis was imo a real follower of what Christ tried to Teach, but how few understand.

I see comments here praising the Catholic Church & other Orthodox Institutions. What has St Francis to do with these.? NOTHING. He rejected them in life & helped the poor & outcast. Everything he did rejected such Religious institutions just as Jesus Christ did.

Just my view point....no offence is intended to anyone's beliefs.

Everytime I watch this movie, it always moved me to tears. I was so touch with Francesco's humility. St. Francis of Assissi and St. Joan of Arc are my favorite saints of all.

@wukalar76 NO. He STAYED in the Catholic Church, seeked out the Pope's blessing and helped change it from within. When the Church goes astray, God sends powerful men and women who become saints and set it back on track regardless of it's human sinfulness.

St. Francis was a true imitator of Christ because he loved him. He wanted to be like Christ with all his heart and so he bore the stigmata.

Thank you Lord for the institution of the Catholic Church who has guided your people for over 2000 years. The gates of Hell shall not prevail against it because it is lead by the Holy Spirit. Thank you God for all your holy priests and nuns.

Amen!

I would of brought my own pair of Hanes so I could've of left with them.

Jesus preached against the Pharisees and then the church became a den of pharisees as demonstrated in this scene.

Saint Francisco is definitely my favourite saint, and one of the most loved by all Catholics. This man was so out of this world. He turned from the richest, handsome, party loving young man in the town to a devout Christian beggar in the street preaching the gospel by example of his poverty and charity. He lived out his life that way to the end, and in doing so converted to so many people to God.
