Ponderables from the Poverello

We must be firmly convinced that we have nothing of our own, except our vices and sins. And so we should rejoice when we "faill into various trials" (James 1:2), and when we suffer anguish of soul or body, or affliction of any kind in this world, for the sake of life eternal.

-Rule of 1221, 17
