Mike on vacation

Mike Casey posted this quote on Facebook and I'm posting it here with his permission. He read this book on his Kindle while vacationing in Hawaii.

Its take from a book entitled An  Altar in the World by Barbara Brown Taylor. I presume it refers to St. Francis of Assisi.

"Francis could not have told you the difference between “the sacred” and “the secular” if you had twisted his arm behind his back. He read the world as reverently as he read the Bible. For him, a leper was as kissable as a bishop’s ring, a single bird as much a messenger of God as a cloud full of angels. Francis had no discretion. He did not know where to draw the line between the church and the world. For this reason among others, Francis is remembered as a saint."
