A person who is not convinced, enthusiastic, certain and in love, will convince nobody.
Pope FrancisThe blood of our Christian brothers and sisters is a testimony which cries out to be heard by everyone who can still distinguish between good and evil.
Pope FrancisWhen we give help to the poor, we are not doing the work of aid agencies 'in a Christian way'. Those are good, it is a decent thing to do - aid work is good and quite human - but it is not Christian poverty, which St. Paul desires of us and preaches to us. Christian poverty is that I give of my own, and not of that which is left over - I give even that, which I need for myself, to the poor person, because I know that he enriches me. Why does the poor person enrich me? Because Jesus Himself told us that He is in the poor person.
Pope FrancisEvery man, every woman who has to take up the service of government, must ask themselves two questions: โDo I love my people in order to serve them better? Am I humble and do I listen to everybody, to diverse opinions in order to choose the best path.โ If you donโt ask those questions, your governance will not be good.
