Saints as a model for our life

[Thekla]

i have no problem giving honor buy you have to admit some groups go WAY beyond in how they do it..

it may so seem, but remember -- as we mature, our path gets "narrower".

and some on the "narrow" seem extreme

so its quite hard to assess from the outside

its best to focus on allowing Christ to "narrow" our own path

 

[HisKid1973]

Amen, I agree..Shouldn't those who are more mature help others in following the straight and narrow to mature by pointing out what is most important..

Amen, I agree..Shouldn't those who are more mature help others in following the straight and narrow to mature by pointing out what is most important..

those who truly are, are often the "quietest", the most unremarkable

many of these seek solitude; others find them through the action of the Holy Spirit, who draws those in need to find those who can assist

 

[Mary of Bethany]

PS, I believe that there is also a Third Order of Franciscans in the Anglican Church.

Forgive me for leaving out most of your quote, but I just wanted to address this. My husband attends an Anglican Catholic Church parish, and one of the ladies there is a 3rd Order Fransciscan, so you are quite right.
