Try to enter the narrow way...

Abba Matoes said that three old men went to Abba Paphnutius, who was called Cephalus, to ask a word from him. The old man said to them, 'What do you want me to say to you? A spiritual word, or a bodily word?' They said, 'A spiritual word.' The old man said to them, 'Go, and choose trials rather than stillness, shame rather than glory, and to give rather than to receive.' - Abba Matoes

I've never seen Franciscans in blue. Beside the point.

And this picture has to do with Penance?, and the title refers to a point you are making? (from a past post I've obviously missed).

Man, I just hate it when your posts fly over my head at light speed.

Though I figure I have it coming, after I made fun of your MN weather.

It's like "Come and see."

I labeled it penance because it looks cold and rainy and they are discalced.
