Saint Francis of Assisi, the son of a wealthy merchant, voluntarily abandoned all material security in order to follow Christ poor. From his conversion onward, his whole spirituality was ordered around one essential idea: to empty himself of self in order to be filled with God. He called himself “lesser,” always seeking the last place, and taught by his life a humility that recognizes one’s own smallness before God and embraces all as brothers, without superiority or judgment.
Saint Francis of Assisi: Devotional of Humility and Holy Poverty is a prayer book inspired by that path of simplicity, renunciation, and evangelical love. Its pages invite the reader to seek both exterior poverty, visible in a sober and detached life, and interior poverty, which frees the heart from ambitions, vanities, and attachments so as to trust fully in divine providence.
With traditional images of Saint Francis of Assisi, spaces for noting intentions, and a novena dedicated to humility and spiritual poverty, this devotional is an ideal resource for those who desire to grow in the interior life and for those who long to follow Christ with greater simplicity, peace, and self-surrender.
