The Nature Of Saint Francis Of Assisi Biography

By Karyn Shields


There are people who have done so much in the world. There are ordinary men who became notable because of the things that they have done to the world and to the citizens. It is through the Supreme Being which makes the lives of these people extraordinary. One example of them is a saint. He offered everything just for the people. What he wants is the best to the men without even minding himself.

Sacrifice is the main purpose of every saint. They sacrifice themselves for the sake of others. They do not mind how hungry they have become for as long as they have fed the poor. They do not think about about how cold they would get for as long as they have clothe the sick. Everything that they have done do not ask for something in return. Saint Francis of Assisi biography talks about the things mentioned.

Saint Francis owns the zodiac of Sagittarius. He was given birth on November 26, 1182. His mother, Pica de Bourlemont introduces him to the world in Assisi. His father, Pietro di Bernardone came from a wealthy family. His mother also came from a notable family. He was christened as Giovanni which was changed to Francesco.

The saint was called as the Patron of Animals, merchants and ecology. He is also the founder of the Order of Friars Minor which is also known as Franciscans. He is also considered as the first Italian poet which when writing uses the dialect of Umbria.

Francis was lucky that he came from an affluent family because all his needs are given. When he was young, his life was pretty opposite. He is recognized to be the usual bad boys in the household yet everything was changed when his heart was touched and his eyes were awakened by God. He lived his life helping and helping the needy.

Francis then became an aid in the war in 1202. He became as one of the soldier. His experience during the war was really disheartening as he had seen so much pain and anguish.

Only a payed ransom can set them free.

When his family had given his ransom, he was freed right away. All the pain that he got in his heart has marked a tremendous scar which will never be wiped out. He was ill in mind and body. It is because of that certain incident which aided him in changing his views of the world. His life was also altered.

Francis was a great man. He fed the sick and he even helped in assembling the church. Since the church lacks fund, he then decided to do a thing which can truly make his father angry. He robbed the horse of his father. He also stole the cloth that is also owned by his father. He had only done it because he desired to help.

He also received a vision from Christ which left him the stigmata. It resembles the wounds that Jesus Christ had experienced when he was crucified. He then died on October 3, 1226 in Assisi, Italy. He died at the age of 44.
