Tradcatknight: Way of Perfection: Simplicity and Confidence
Saint Francis De Sales
TAKEN FROM The Virtues-------A Year with the Saints
by a Member of the Order of Mercy, Imprimatur, 1891
Among those who make profession of following the maxims of Christ, simplicity ought to be held in great esteem; for, among the wise of this world there is nothing more contemptible or despicable than this. Yet it is a virtue most worthy of love, because it leads us straight to the kingdom of God, and, at the same time, wins for us the affection of men; since one who is regarded as upright, sincere, and an enemy to tricks and fraud, is loved by all, even by those who only seek from morning till night to cheat and deceive others. -----St. V. de Paul.
