St. Clare - Friend of the Sick Why Do You Not Come To Me? The LIFE OF ST. CLARE, one of the most fascinating miracles in the Franciscan history. A blind man had a vision in which he heard a beautiful lady saying to him: Why do you not come to me to be cured? Upon learning that this lady was Blessed Clare of Assisi, sightless Giacobello set out to visit her tomb, there to receive what he had so long desired, his vision. Down the centuries, the gracious and most gentle St. Clare has continued to ask the afflicted ones of the world: Why do you not come to me? No stranger to suffering, she bore the cross of illness for more than twenty-eight years, and she was the first spiritual daughter of St. Francis still desires to help those who suffer to share as deeply and as fruitfully as she did in the mystery of redemptive love. -Saint Clare is asking you today beloved to go to her with your afflictions, burdens, worries and sufferings to help you, to intercede on your behalf to the Lord our God. Amen
